    hi linickz,

    Welcome to the LinuxForums.

    try different keyboard layput. open terminal/konsole and execute this
    Code:
    setxkbmap gb
    try 'us' too.
    It is amazing what you can accomplish if you do not care who gets the credit.

    Did you try a different keyboard? Is the keyboard one of those non standard ultra-multimedia types??
