Hi Nicholas,
Only the last option worked! but it works.
You only have to adjust the path and the file:
The files are in /usr/share/keymaps/i386/azerty
and I used fr-latin9.kmap.gz instead of fr-pc.kmap.gz, as this is what's generally found for fr_FR keyboards
ANy idea why this would not work as it is supposed to work, simply with dpkg-reocnfigure console-data ?
Thanks and best regards-

I'd like to add that I am running on a french system. So I have the opposite issue as what you explained : my keyboard has a french layout (running windows xp if that matters, VM Player downloaded this morning), everything is in French, but the keyboard layout.
Inside the vm image, all messages are in French, showing that language environnement variables are used.
But not the keyboard ... -

Hello Nicholas
Thanks for your answer. It was timely, as I was about to give up and try find another solution. In the mean time, I had however manage to get my sudo straight and install locales and console-data.
However, I have not yet succeeded in having a french keyboard. I have run dpkg-reconfigure a few times already, and added the lines you mentioned in /etc/profile, then rebooted to be sure
I can echo $LANGUAGE and echo $LANG and they have the desired values. However, the keyboard still has US layout.
ANy idea ? any lof file I should look at ?

How can I change keyboard layout ?Hi
Just created a lamp server, based on daisy linux, with minimum stuff : apache2, mysql, php, created as a vmware image
Everything went smootly. Except I am French and use a french keyboard. So I tried installing locales, reconfiguring console-data, but all of that does not seem to be available in daisy linux.
So should I change apt sources to regular etch ? won't that cause issues elsewhere
More generally, how should I go about changing keyboard layout to another language that english ?
Thanks for any pointer. The service is pretty useless if we do not have the correct keyboard layout !!
Cheers
