    Hi,

    after booting my SUSE 9 Pro system into runlevel 3, I have worked on SAX2 as
    root, configured my monitor properly and come back to runlevel 5 (all as
    root, of course).
    But when I have started my KDE, trying o write something in a shell, I have
    discovered that mapping of the keyboard was not correct(I don't mean the
    letters, but symbols, commas, ec ...). But the set up came back to the
    correct settings after I have entered as root and beated

    init 5

    But this solution was temporary: after rebooting the system, the situation was
    the same, with wrong keyboar mapping. The boot log file says that I am really
    entering the system with init 5 mode. So, what could be the problem?
    YAST tells me I am using the right (italian keyboard), and when I test it I
    find the right characters ....

    Thanks a lot

    LM
