Laptop keyboard issues

Earlier today I installed some new ram in my laptop (NEC Versa E2000) which was really starting to feel the crunch with only 256 ram. After adding a GB of ram I decided to re-installing stock Ubuntu and once again ran across the problem of my key which is meant to produce | and instead produced < and > I found the fix to this at the Ubuntu forums but decided to document it here as well.

To fix this problem you need to have the following command run when you log in:

xmodmap -e 'keycode 94 = backslash bar'
