Hey, I'm currently unable to use the backslash "\" (Incase you wonder, I had to Google that and copypasta) key within any apps/tty1 or anything. At the moment all I get is "<" :L
Thanks in advance.
{EDIT: Solved by using "setkbxmap gb" at ~/.xinitrc

Err..install xvkbd?
Thanks, But I'm unable to use that for what I require the use of backslash for, code :L

Is this a software problem or does it occur under other operating systems/LiveCDs? If that's your only symptom, I'd be inclined to blame it on a faulty keyboard.

Same exact hardware config used to be fine with winblows/ubuntu. So I'm guessing its something to do with how my arch is configured at the moment?

What happens if you press ALT GR + < (< on my keyboard (danish) is next to the Z, and with this combination I get the backslash)

For some reason, I get "alsamixer" pasted onto current line, when I press ALT GR + <
