Even though I set keyboard to 'Swiss German' during the installation, I got an 'English' keyboard map. (I think this problem existed in Hoary already).
But now, setting your keyboard layout under 'System > Preferences > Keyboard' is buggy. Even if one has changed the language successfully, the changes become ineffective on logout - even though the setting in the menu still displays 'Switzerland German' as a default. It takes some strange fiddling about to get it to work. I need to add the keyboard 'Switzerland German' a second time. Then I mark the new "S.G." as 'default', "move it up" in the ordering, and then delete the first 'S.G.' and then it works (?!), until the next logout, that is! Very annoying, indeed. :-( (Oliver, do I need to report these two to Ubuntu upstream? Where? The user mailing list? Wiki? Bugzilla?) -- :::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::.
