Well I have work out keyboards so the apostrophe not working is a
possibility. The obvious check would be to plug the keyboard into
another computer and see what happens. Or get a new keyboard and if it
isn't that you now have a spare. Techy would be either to remap an
unused key to become the apostrophe -- I've done it with Windows but
haven't needed to for Linux. Cheap-techy is manually enter: shift_U
then 0027 (either keypad).
...Probably 'just' an incorrect setting. I have a small keyboard --
seems like it is 98 keys or something odd. Finally figured RPi wanted
the 'US - mini-keyboard' or something similar configuration. And when
you find the correct setting put it on a label on the bottom of the
keyboard!
