When in CLI mode, I can perfectly use AZERTY, but if I'm using the GUI, it turns to QWERTY (very annoying!).

Any ideas on how to solve this?

I had this problem on Vectorlinux too!

Here's where you need to make adjustments. Change your XkbLayout option to the appropriate code:

CODE
Section "InputDevice"
   Identifier  "Keyboard1"
   Driver      "kbd"
   Option      "AutoRepeat"    "500 30"
   Option      "XkbModel"      "pc105"
   Option      "XkbLayout"     "gb"
   Option      "XkbOptions"    "compose:ralt"
EndSection


This is in your xorg.conf or XF86Config file (as appropriate).

Well, how exactly do I change it to azerty? What piece in that code do I need to change? blush.gif

Change the XkbLayout option from gb to the country code of wherever you are, I think.
