and switching in English with 'Keyboard type'...

Comments:
The fix should be not very long to be released. I don't
know if this problem affects other platforms than i386.
Anyway, I understand that a perfect release is impossible.
So, *thank* you for your wonderful work.

An idea: it will be a VERY good idea to put LOCALE (i.e.
regional preferences) choice in setup!

Sorry if my English isn't good, and I hope you can read me
without difficulties :-)
