Open /etc/X11/xorg.conf in your favorite editor

find this part

 Section "InputDevice"
     Identifier    "Generic Keyboard"
     Driver        "keyboard"
     Option        "CoreKeyboard"
     Option        "XkbRules"    "xorg"
    Option        "XkbModel"    "pc104"
    Option        "XkbLayout"    "us" -> Put your language code here
 EndSection

 that will change your keyboard layaut after x reboot but don't do it
just jet :)

 open terminal and write

 setxkbmap <language_code>

 and voila you have your keybuard working in your language
