This is an old revision of the document!
For the improper keystroke on pipe and backslash, do the following:
sudo nano /etc/rc.local
Put this in the file.
#!/bin/sh setkeycodes 56 43 exit 0
Ctrl-X, Y, Enter.
sudo chmod 750 /etc/rc.local sudo chown root:root /etc/rc.local sudo reboot
Done - problem fixed.
[Update: After a major dist-upgrade this fix breaks as the upgrade does something odd to rc.local that I have not identified yet. When this happens, delete the rc.local file, repeat the steps above, and reboot. It should be fine after that.]
