** Description changed:
Ubuntu Saucy has the wrong default keyboard layout for Dutch users:
almost all keyboards sold in the Netherlands have the U.S. English
keyboard layout, and not the Dutch (Nl) layout.
The default choice for Dutch users should be "US International" with
variant "International (with dead keys)". This variant is important,
because in Dutch there are words that contain letters with accents.
This is a regression: see this old bug report from 2007, when it was fixed:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/console-setup/+bug/129982
+
+ Note: strangely enough, the keyboard layout is right (namely USA Intl)
+ when you interrupt the boot process of the DVD and choose your settings
+ manually. When you choose Dutch then, and then press F3 for keyboard
+ layout, the right keyboard layout is preselected.
