Bug#269653: Old kbd-chooser bug on Oldworld Powermac: may someone try reproducing it?




I'll check it out next chance I get. It will probably be a week or two before I get time to try it. If that's too long, I'd guess you can close this issue out. I've installed several PPC machines (admittedly all more modern than the PowerMac 6500/225 in question) since then and don't remember seeing this problem.

We (D-I team) have an old bug lying in kbd-chooser bug log for
Oldworld Powermac installs:
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=269653


Given that kbd-chooser and the installer have changed a lot since
then, it's pretty much likely that the bug is away. May someone try
reproducing it with a recent installer image such as D-I Etch beta2
(http://www.debian.org/devel/debian-installer)?

Bug summary:

"During the language/keyboard choice phase, I took all the defaults
(Language->English, Region->UnitedStates, KeyboardType->USB) until it
came to the Keymap choice.  There the default was "European".  This is
*not* what I expected -- or what was the default behavior in the past!
Having done everything possible to indicate that I was in the USA and
speaking English, I would have expected the default keymap to be
AmericanEnglish."

The machine is a PowerMac 6500/225.
