DSL seems like a brilliant idea, but one thing I need working is the keyboard layout.... I can live with english language most of the way but I'm too lame with typing to finger out the US layout on my norwegian keyboard. I tried all options to set NO for keyboard layout but to no avail... it just don't return no result. Probably I'm doing something wrong so helps appreciated. Downloaded DSL 0.7.2 today BTW, it's my first attempt. Using x86 architecture and so on....

Regards,
RRRR

I haven't used DSL for a while, downloaded 1.5, and Wow! such improvements!  :D
However. The keyboard issue remains. The keyboard selector in the "Control Panel" thingy does nothing, and I still have to do

CTRL+ALT+BKSPC
loadkeys no-standard
startx

to get actual norwegian keyboard in all apps (but that does work).......

Other gripes (though maybe OT in this thread):

DSL only find the one of my two onboard LAN's that I'm not using...
If I plug into that card before booting DSL just hangs. I must unplug the network cable, boot into DSL, then plug in networkcable in the right LAN card, activate DHCP, and then: Internet!
