The keymap that should be loaded is /usr/share/keymaps/i386/qwertz/de-latin1-nodeadkeys.kmap.gz Normally with kbdconfig you can browse through the directory of /usr/share/keymaps/ and choose the one you need. If you are using console-tools after the installation it should get your /etc/console-tools/default.kmap.gz (Analogously with kbd -- /etc/kbd/default.kmap.gz, I think) To get a german keymap for X you you could use a tool like XF86Setup or xf86config > I just installed debian, potato, on a new comp. Now I cannot use the German keys "a "u "s (latex-babel notation) neither on the console nor with X. I've choosen qwertz-nodeadkeys at installation and several time with "kbdconfig". Curiously the "z" and "y"keys are changed. sorry for that question: Did you hit "qwerty" when you were asked for "qwertz" or "qwerty"? It's a bit funny, because you must hit the wrong to get the right one ... > > Thanks for any hints... > Peter Over here are some german debian-gurus, so hopefully you problem will get solved ... A humble literary critic, enthusaistic about debian, but still only enthusiastic ...
