Keymap problem


Hello!

I use Vector Linux, and have a problem with my
keymap. I use a Swedish keyboard/keymap which works
fine in vty's, but not in X (I use XFCE window manager).
In X, the pipe button (containing less than, greater
than and pipe) doesn't work, which is extremely
annoying.

Please tell me: How do I change the keymap used in X?

Joel

Part of my /etc/X11/xorg.conf:

Code:
Section "InputDevice"
        Identifier  "Keyboard0"
        Driver      "kbd"
        Option      "XkbModel"  "pc105"
        Option      "XkbLayout"  "de"
EndSection
Change "de" to what you need.
