Keyboard layout under xfce (Debian Testing, XF86Config)

We installed Debian Testing onto our old 333MHz/128MB Compaq M300. We had Suse Linux 9.2. It worked well, but was quite slow. Suse, RedHat and Mandrake are nowadays like Windows: bloated. Debian Testing was much faster and we changed from KDE to xfce. No problems, we just had to adjust the keyboard layout in /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 from us to fi Section "InputDevice" Option "XkbLayout" "us"
