[1] The USB keyboard is detected correctly in the BIOS and in the initial
boot menu, but becomes unavailable when the `Choose a Language' menu
is presented. The installation can go no further.
Tried booting with acpi=off but this made no difference
[2] Tried the graphical install, but this failed right away, the following error
message being flashed repeatedly to the console:
Gdk-CRITICAL **: gdk_drawable_set_colormap: assertion `cmap == NULL ||
gdk_drawable_get_depth (drawable) == `cmap->visual->depth' failed
[3] Tried changing USB-related settings in BIOS (limited); no difference
[3] Tried build of Sept 6th 2009: same problem
[4] Tried build of Aug 1st 2009: got as far as the boot menu, chose Install; the
system then froze with this message on the console:
(process:1047): INFO: kbd-mode: setting console mode to Unicode (UTF-8)
[5] Went back to the official 5.3 installer and did not encounter the problemt
