Since the Rpi is English and my keyboard is not, I have problems with some features. I want to change my keyboard type to US but when I look for my model of keyboard it does not show up. What to do?

sudo raspi-config has an option to set timezone, locale and keyboard layout.

As mentioned choose one of the generic keyboards.... However this is not enough, you must correctly complete the keyboard setup which follows after that...... then reboot. Follow #14 here: http://www.raspberrypi.org/forums/viewt ... 45#p661684

Many people miss that you need to scroll down and select [Other] to get to the country menu. Also many miss that you have to reboot as the raspi-config does not flag a reboot is needed for keyboard setting as it does for some of the other settings.

It would be nice if you told me that information out.
