Hmm, since you are from brazil you might not be used a key layout 100% identical to a North American keyboard. You may have fallen victim to Yann Dirson's 100%-bug-free console-data package. Install the "kbd" package, and from the console (not X), use the "showkey" command to determine what scan code is being generated by the E key. If none, you either have a hardware problem or a kernel problem. Otherwise, your console keymap is messed up and you should file a bug against the console-data package. Don't feel bad; Yann Dirson has the default keymap set to some French thing -- this affects every Debian user in the world, and most of the world isn't France. I guess some people take the figurative expression "lingua franca" too literally. :) -- G.
