Hello,<BR>
<BR>

<BR>
Ah... now I remember seeing the layout saying United Kingdom<BR>
International with Dead Keys. I got that from<BR>
System->Preferences->Keyboard->Layouts under Gnome.<BR>
<BR>
I changed it back to "US English", but now, of course, I have " and@<BR>
back-to-front. But the " and ' work ok :)<BR>
<BR>
I've really struggled to get the keyboard right on this install... it<BR>
really shouldn't be difficult, but various combinations of xorg<BR>
settings and gnome settings haven't got it to do the right thing.<BR>
<BR>
