1. Type this command:

sudo raspi-config


2. In raspi-config, select:

4 Internationalisation Options



3. Select:

I3 Change Keyboard Layout


4. Select:

Generic 105-key (Intl) PC

5. Change the keyboard layout to US:

English (US)


6.  Select:

No compose key

8. It is up to you to select Yes or No.

Quit raspi-config.
The Raspberry Pi may need to restart for new keyboard settings to be applied.
