Thanks! with your hint I did an apt-cache search on "keymap" and found console-data, a dpkg-reconfigre console-data and subsequenty on console-common followed by a reboot got my keyboard set correctly.
My console still wont display umlauts though, I still need to figure out how to set that up. I have chosen de-utf8 with dpkg-reconfigure locales, but I just want to be able to see the characters, not change the language of my system.
