As for scroll lock indicator, I'm on a Lenovo T400 laptop and Virtual Box inside it, so I can't see any indicator when layout is not latin. All I noticed was a warning sign when CAPSLOCK was on, in password field, though that was not consistent (I tried to turn on and off the CAPSLOCK, it was just flashing - probably expected as when you manually switch you know you want to change it). -- പ്രവീണ് അരിമ്പ്രത്തൊടിയില് You have to keep reminding your government that you don't get your rights from them; you give them permission to rule, only so long as they follow the rules: laws and constitution. -- പ്രവീണ് അരിമ്പ്രത്തൊടിയില് You have to keep reminding your government that you don't get your rights from them; you give them permission to rule, only so long as they follow the rules: laws and constitution.
