Keyboard settings for console

[sinck@corp.quepasa.com]

man kbd_mode 

particularly the -a option

This may bork X.

YMMV

\_ I have installed Debian potato on my lap top.
\_ aside from a few bugs that I am getting rid of
\_ through updating every day I can't seem to
\_ get the console to use my keyboard right.
\_ 
\_ when typing things the letters seem to be
\_ arranged differently.  like `q' key actually prints `a'
\_ and the `w' key actually prints `x' and vise versa.
\_ I don't know what causes this.  I figured there would
\_ be some kind of keyboard mapping for the console but
\_ I am unable to find it.  Once I got the messed up
\_ keys figured out I was able to log in and everything
\_ was fine in X windows.  also everything was fine through
\_ the install.  Just after the first reboot that it started
\_ this weird behavior
