Hi I was away for a while and when came back to Tokyo I saw this and felt
bad about not posting the solution. Actually I tried so many things like
 "install-keymap","load-keys" and changing the keyboard settings in /etc/X11/XFconfig-4.
I tried everything I've found googleing ( without having any idea what I 
was doing) and none of this was working,..that's when I sent an email to the list.
I'm so sorry I'm not an expert...
