Re: [SLUG] FW: Dell and Linux

[Ben Donohue]

does the mouse work? try another keyboard that is not wireless also try hitting the tab keys to cycle around to the button you want. then try up/down arrows. also you could try a text only installation.

No keyboard commands have any effect, leaving the machine locked onto the American English choice.   The installation CDs have already been used for two successful installations on other machines. So I wonder if the problem lies with Dell’s compatibility or its wireless keyboard.   Suggestions welcome.   Sean Garman.
