I just installed ubuntu on my laptop. I have a toshiba satellite L300 and the keyboard is stuck on french?

Its a bilingual keyboard and my query marking and slashes come out like e’s with accents.
I cant figure out learn to alter it.
Please help
Thanks
LOL in ubuntu there is no computer. And in house windows that is not how it works. If you do not know the solution do not answer. If ıt have been a change from eng-french i’d have already done it.
Nvm I figured this out.
What searched for:
- lubuntu keyboard stuck on English
- satellite laptop graphics ubuntu
- toshiba satellite l305 with ubuntu 9 10
- toshiba satellite pro L300 virtualbox
- where is my toshiba l305 webcam in ubuntu

Press Alt-F2 and in the box that comes up, type:
sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
This will ask for your password, type it in.
In the editor, find the block starting with:
Section “InputDevice”
Identifier”Generic Keyboard”
If you don’t find this Identifier line, look for the following one:
Driver”kbd”
Add/change the Option lines in that block to look like this:
Option”XkbModel”"pc104″
Option”XkbLayout”"us”
Option”XkbVariant”"intl”
After this, you will want to restart X, but it’s just as easy to reboot.
I would also like to nominate the person above me for both the “worst help ever” and “dumbest comment ever” awards.
