If you are somewhat comfortable with a console, you might want to try: sudo dpkg-reconfigure keyboard-configuration You will get a big list of possible keyboard configurations. Among them, there are a few Mac-ish options. I see the following in my distro: MacBook/MacBook Pro MacBook/MacBook Pro (intl.) Macintosh Macintosh Old Unfortunately, I can't tell you which one to use, since I have no Macs at home :) Have a look at the Debian wiki page on keyboards [1], there might be useful info for you. > Maybe it happened because I chose > " i686 pae " (or similar name) > under "advanced" (option 2) in start-up of the machine.

I'm sure Xfce has some app to choose the keyboard, as an alternative to my proposal above. > Because I do need sometimes to switch to a Greek keyboard. Sorry for my bad > English. Oh -- I do have a configuration where I can switch between Latin and Greek. But be warned, I don't use a desktop environment, just plain X and a window manager (I seem to be too stupid for DEs, I tried some). And don't worry about your English. It is adequate.
