What's the difference between these? Why do I have an option (yes, I love
to have the option but) if it can be autodetected?

Oh yeah. I remember now. I looked in the kbd package in SuSE 7.1 and I
just assumed that if old SuSE 7.1 kbd package had Swedish key mappings
sure Mandrake 8.0 would have it as well. My bad.
So that is how they solved it, they use PC mappings. Does that work well?
I guess I am out of luck then, because I don't want to go back to the days
in 1993 when I had to run Linux with US keyboard mappings. Sigh. Maybe I
should have a look at SuSE 7.1 then, even though it probably sucks
terrible. :-(
