I'm rather curious about the whole keyboard mapping issue. I frequently see statements about how lacking Linux is when referring to easy keyboard mapping applications. But, frankly I see lots of these applications out there. But the thing that I am most curious about is how many people are actually switching their keyboards on the fly?
In my world, the keyboard is selected at installation and it never changes. No one wants it changed either. I have NEVER been asked to change a keyboard or locale setting after installation.
Is there really so much demand for this kind of thing and, if so, why? It seems to me that a PC switching keyboards and locale settings would be an exception to the norm rather than a rule.
