Hi there,
I'd appreciate if someone could help me making my keyboard behave

I have runned dpkg-reconfigure locales
and I have set KDE KControl to use pt keymap

However when I reboot my configuration is gone (I always get a US keyboard)
I have created a persistent disk (knoppix.img on hda7) but
I always get a us keyboard.

In order to have a pt layout|keymap I open KDE Control Center,
Keyboard Layout then I select Portugal
Check and uncheck "include latin layout" just to get the Apply button active.
When I press apply I have a pt keyboard and I can start typing normally on a shell.
All the symbols \ , ; are in place

But this is a lousy and annoying solution. How do I correct this?
TIA
