backspace and delete keys behavior

[Mariano Guadagnini]

Hi guys, I am new to Freebsd (after years of linux) and, althought system 
installation and configuration was quite seamlessly, I've an issue with the 
delete key of my keyboard (101 keys us layout): In xterm, the backspace key 
works ok, but when I press del, it prints the "~" character, instead of  
deleting .  I have read it has something to do with keyboard layout config, 
but I couldn't find out how to fix it. So, any ideas?

Thanks, (and forgive my poor english)
