Yes. This makes the alphanumeric keys work OK.
However, some of the symbol keys are still incorrect.
On the top-left, below ESC, just to the left of the ‘1’ key, the key
is engraved with ‘§’ and ‘±’, but produces ‘`’ and ‘~’. Just
left of ‘Z’, the key is engraved with ‘`’ and ‘~’, but produces
‘<’ and ‘>’.
Also, the keyboard does not produce a ‘#’when pressing Right-Alt+3,
but AFAICT this isn't a new regression. This would match the
behaviour under OS X (but I'm not sure this is necessarily best fixed
in the same way).
I also tested the "power_g5" option. This also restores the alphabet
keys, but several of the symbol keys are incorrect. The system I'm
using is a G4 Apple Mac Mini system with an Apple USB keyboard (UK
layout).

Roger
