Euro numeric notations use comma as the decimal devider, with the dot as the 
hundreds seperator:

US    -- 299,550,210.89 
Euro -- 299.550.210,89

SuSE is primarily a Euro distro... so the mapping is not that surprising.

Check your LOCAL settings in your window manager.

Outside of that... it will become a matter of chasing down the key mapping in 
your X config.

Sorry I don't know enough to be more specific.
