I copy/paste my keyboard setup options:
- Add euro symbol... none selected
- Caps lock behaviour... default
- Alt/windows behavior... default
- Japanese keyboard... none selected
- Layout switching... none selected
- Numeric keypad delete key... default
- Numeric keypad layout selection... default
- Miscelanuous compatibility options... none selected
- Compose key location... none selected
- Ctrl key location...default
- Third level selectors... none selected
- Use keyboard LED to show alternative... none selected
- Using space key to input... default
