Hi, all. I've recently changed Ubuntu for Lubuntu 12.04 in my netbook.
I've tried to change the keyboard layout/map to English alt. international, since I need constantly accents.
When I finally managed to do it (you have to click on apply even to test the layout), I was extremely disappointed because Lubuntu changes back to standard English keyboard in any reboot! and I have 'a instead of á, that is (one thing among many) what I need.
My machine (Gateway) is has the US normal keyboard. But I've installed and am using Lubuntu in another language (Portuguese Brazil).
Any clues how to fix (both meanings) it?
Thanks!

Re: Lubuntu keyboard map alt. eng. international
SOLVED by the details:
I edited the etc/default/keyboard file and changed the default for what I wanted (English international alternative).
The content should be this:
XKBMODEL="pc105"
XKBLAYOUT="us"
XKBVARIANT="alt-intl"
XKBOPTIONS=""
What I did wrong the previous time was typing the keyboard type ("int" instead of "intl") and the system didn't recognize the command.
Now its working í ê à ñ
