I installed Debian recently and the keyboard setup was set to UK. So I tried to reset it with # dpkg-reconfigure keyboard-configuration
and then did # service keyboard-setup restart
.
After that did not work I opened up /etc/default/keyboard
and it looked like this:
# KEYBOARD CONFIGURATION FILE
# Consult the keyboard(5) manual page.
XKBMODEL="pc105"
XKBLAYOUT="us"
XKBVARIANT=""
XKBOPTIONS="lvl3:ralt_switch"
BACKSPACE="guess"
My super key is also broken since I tried to workout this error this may have something to do with this.
