              on the language you chose (see <a class="xref" href="selectLanguage.html" title="Choosing your Language">the section called &#8220;Choosing your Language&#8221;</a>), <span class="application">DrakX</span> automatically
            selects a particular type of keyboard configuration. Verify that the
              selection suits you or choose another keyboard layout. If you don't know which layout your keyboard has, look in the specifications
            that came with your system, or ask the computer vendor. You can also look here: <a class="ulink" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Keyboard_layout" target="_top">en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Keyboard_layout</a>

         <p><a name="BId-drakxid-selectKeyboard-pa2"></a>If your keyboard isn't in the list shown, click on <span class="guibutton">More</span> to get a full list, and select your keyboard there. Note that after having chosen your keyboard, you will return to the first
            screen and it'll seem that a keyboard from this first screen was chosen. You can safely ignore this and go on, the keyboard
            you chose from the full list will now be configured!

         <p><a name="BId-drakxid-selectKeyboard-pa3"></a>If you choose a keyboard
                layout based on a non-Latin alphabet, the next dialog will allow
                you to choose the key binding which will switch the keyboard
                between the Latin and non-Latin layouts.
         </p>
         
           
         <p><a name="BId-drakxid-selectKeyboard-pa4"></a>Additional information: You may have a keyboard which does not correspond exactly to your language: for example, if you are
            an English-speaking Swiss native, you may have a Swiss keyboard. Or if you speak English and are located in Qu&eacute;bec, you may
            find yourself in the same situation where your native language and country-set keyboard don't match. In either case, this
            installation step will allow you to select an appropriate keyboard.
