    Hi,

    I've had this forwarded to me by Philip, I've not tested it just yet
    but should help a few of you..

    >Please could you forward this to the list, I'm mailing from work.

    >After 17 emails to suse to every email address I could find they are
    looking at why yast2 crashes when installing an >english keyboard, it
    has been "passed onto their developers".

    >In the meantime.

    >Install with an American keyboard, then at the command line, run yast
    (not
    >yast2) and select your language installation setting to english. Do
    this once only then exit immediatly (on my
    >system it hangs if you do this more than once). Reboot. Then modify
    your X configuration manually, do not touch it
    >with yast or yast2.

    >My install comes up that it fails to find the uk keyboard settings even
    though on my system they are there next to
    >the american ones in the filesystem, and it resorts to an default set
    of mappings, but this works fine so I haven't
    >touched it since.

    >nod.

    Cheers for the tip

    Chris Wren
