Yesterday I booted on a Dell laptop and it worked - it started up

layout I want.
this is running another distro or puredyne too?
No, all puredyne.
Actually I was wrong - just rebooted it on the Dell and it also
requires extra intervention to get the keyboard. So it's not machine-
specific.
maybe the .profile doesn't get sourced, since the default shell in
puredyne is zsh. try adding the line to .zshrc and see if it works
then...
This does work, provided I open xterm before doing anything else. The
keyboard right after logging in is still not the one I want.
I guess I could tweak the profile to launch xterm :)
