$ xkbprint -o somefile.ps $DISPLAY

(you probably have this installed already: it's in the xbase-clients 
package)

will dump the current keyboard layout to a postscript file.
Then view it, e.g.:
    $ gv somefile.ps
    or (if you're using gnome)
    $ gnome-open somefile.ps

Or if you're really lazy, print it :-)
