From the top of my head. I remember when I had KDE, I sort of had the same problem where certain keys would not work. If you are using KDE, there should be an icon at the bottom right with a flag which will tell you which language setting you are currently using. Right click it, and change it to your needs.

Good luck!

Have you verified your /etc/conf.d/keymaps & /etc/conf.d/consolefont files? [the keymap & font are correct & exist on your system?]

Are consolefont & keymaps set in the boot runlevel? [check with rc-update show]
