Wrong Keyboard map changing RC.conf doesnt change it! [solved]

I changed my locale to EN-uk during install, commenting out the US entries so it should be set as UK.
I have tried both "uk" and "gb" in RC.conf for Keymap, but im still getting " for @ etc.
Where do I need to change this?

Do you mean in X or in the console? If you want to change it in X you need to add

 setxkbmap gb 

to your xinit
