have a look at the loadkeys command

If it's running a recent Solaris 10 update release or patch set, or a release newer than Solaris 10 (such as Solaris Express or OpenSolaris), try kbd -s -- on older Solaris x86 releases, try kdmconfig.

Change the LAYOUT value in /etc/default/kbd (use "kbd -s" to get a list of allowed values). Then run "kbd -i" and finally reboot.
