The setting is in /etc/default/keyboard:
XKBMODEL="pc102"
XKBLAYOUT="de"
XKBVARIANT="nodeadkeys"
XKBOPTIONS="ctrl:nocaps"
After rebooting, the xserver finally thinks it´s got a keyboard with
102 keys. Using KDE keyboard layouts, I was able to create a new
.Xmodmap with xmodmap -pke and to edit the new map to get the keyboard
layout I want. Remember to disable KDE keyboard layouts before loading
the .Xmodmap.
Now how about the button mapping of the mouse? There must be some
place to configure that ...
