I have this in my xorg.conf

Section "InputDevice"
        Identifier "Keyboard0"
        Driver "kbd"
        Option "XkbLayout" "dk"
EndSection

And following in my /etc/profile

LANG=da_DK.ISO8859-1; export LANG
MM_CHARSET=ISO-8859-1; export MM_CHARSET

set meta-flag On
set convert-meta Off
set output-meta On

You should also read the BSD-DK FAQ - http://www.batmule.dk/BSD-DK/BSD-DK_FAQ.txt
especially question nr. 3.
