Of course, because the active Hebrew keyboard map is active in X, while
the console remains in English mapping.

Don't forget that the active keyboard map in X11 is global -- not
per-program like in Windows.

e.g. if your keyboard language switching key is Alt-Shift, try
Alt-shifting while your screen is locked and try again.

(Yes, I once made that mistake too -- even killed X because of it,
though on KDE 2)
