Hi People

Can someone please help on how to configure my keyboard with live. I'm in portugal, and we have some special characters that i can't set with live.
By keyboard i'm refering to the physical keyboard, not the virtual one.
But it's not just the special characters.... for example when i press the key '?', what i get is '_' .

Thanks

You'll most likely have to change your locale in some way. If you exit XBMC it should put you at a login prompt, then you can login as xbmc with the password that is typically xbmc unless it's changed when you install XBMC Live onto an internal drive. Once you're there you should be able to change your locale, i'm not sure how exactly to do that but i'm sure that's what you'll need to do.

It's too bad they don't ask that in the installer like Ubuntu and RHEL does.
