I really doubt that slim has any keyboard-layout functionality - it
should be defined by xorg.conf. It's possible that you have a complex
DE (gnome/kde), which overrides the X settings when it loads, as I
assume that your problem is only in slim, and not also in your DE.

A look at your Xorg.0.log, and some more explanation of your situation
would be helpful :)
