weird keyboard behaviour

Under bash the keyboard has a strange behaviour.
My keyboard is a french one (azerty). The letter 's'
is not available : pressing the key does nothing
but a beep ! I've checked that the rest of the
keyboard works as expected; even 'S' (upper case S);
even accentued characters. This key 's' is at the same place on
a US keyboard (qwerty). In emacs 's' is available, and used
to be under B20.
It's embarassing since 'ls' is one of my favorite command :)
BTW :
Installation of this new version is really confusing, especially
for old B20 users.
Like many other people I've a lot of troubles with \r\n :
My / mount was binary and as a consequence bash did not work :
any command followed by return pressed did nothing : the
history showed : "command^M". Moving to text made the
return interpreted.
Below is my cygcheck -s (run under cmd.exe :)
C:\bin>cygcheck -s
