The way I have sorted this one out before (rustically, that is,
I don't know whether a flashy tool does exist, but...). What you want to
do is to have in /etc/console-tools, and have your favourite keymap
called default.kmap.gz. They keymaps are in /usr/share/sumthingorother.
Then you need to change it for X as well in XF86Config.
Hope it helps,
José
