How to choose the right keymap?

-1

I have several Dell XPS13 laptops running Gentoo Linux. The latest one (which I bought used) has an Indian Rupee symbol beside the "4" on the 4 key and a Euro symbol beside the "5" on the 5 key. None of the F1/F2/F3/etc keys are working correctly so I think I need to change the keymap. How can I figure out which keymap to use?

There was a BIOS setting for changing the Function key behavior and switching it completely fixed this.

@stackoverflowrocks - Which setting exactly? – Ramhound – 2015-02-04T17:49:18.093

@Ramhound, it was called "Function Key Setting" or something like that. I would have to reboot to find out for sure. – stackoverflowrocks – 2015-02-04T23:59:12.063
