Of course, I checked my keyboard options...

xorg.conf :

Section "InputDevice"
        Identifier  "Keyboard0"
        Driver      "kbd"
        Option      "XkbLayout" "fr"
        Option      "XkbModel"  "pc105"
        Option      "XkbVariant"        "latin9"
EndSection

NB : I don't have de rules part ?

AND :

rc.conf

keymap="fr.iso"


AND

inside gconf (Desktop/keyboard/kbd)

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<gconf>
        <entry name="model" mtime="1183874053" type="string">
                <stringvalue>trustda</stringvalue>
        </entry>
        <entry name="options" mtime="1183874027" type="list" ltype="string">
                <li type="string">
                        <stringvalue>grp        
grp:alts_toggle</stringvalue>
                </li>
        </entry>
        <entry name="layouts" mtime="1183874027" type="list" ltype="string">
                <li type="string">
                        <stringvalue>fr latin9</stringvalue>
                </li>
                <li type="string">
                        <stringvalue>fr oss</stringvalue>
                </li>
        </entry>
</gconf>

Any clues ?

Thanks in advance

Bruno
