I've just finished installing ubuntu 12.04 and installed the missed language packages but I strangely can't type backslash as I used to use the button above the windows button, Can't figure out what the problem is and I use this button a lot in programming using eclipse, so what is the problem?

thanks in advance

As Gunnar Hjalmarsson said

"Open System Settings > Keyboard Layout and select a layout that matches your keyboard."

When you add a layout to the list of layouts you're interested in you can see each one of them by pressing the button under the list, on the right. In this way you can check that the layout you've picked matches your keyboard layout.
