Thanks, now at least I got it working on the console. X however refuses to do anything useful, which may be due to the fact that it uses some other keyboard mode which gives different keycodes. I tried editing the /etc/X11/xkb/keycodes/xfree86 file, changing the entry for <BKSL> at the top to 84 (the code I get from showkey), but there was no effect. And yes, I restarted X ;-) -- Got Backup? Jabber: Shadowdancer at jabber.fsinf.de
