[Bug 871752] Re: wrong keyboard layout to enter wifi credential on a non-us keyboard

[Matthew Paul Thomas]

This bug and bug 1047384 might be fixed at the same time, but not
necessarily, so this is not a duplicate.

** This bug is no longer a duplicate of bug 1047384
   System Encryption Password set before setting keyboard locale

** Description changed:

  Ubuntu 11.10
  
  On the wifi step, by default the keyboard layout is set to 'US' which
  make it difficult to enter wireless password if the system's keyboard is
  non-US.
  
  <http://goo.gl/YwIcT>: "The “Keyboard layout” screen should appear
  immediately before whichever is the first keyboard-requiring step. This
  might be, for example, “Connect to the Internet”, “Allocate disk space”,
  or “Where are you”."
  
  <http://goo.gl/b7460>: "'Connect to the Internet' ... is a keyboard-
  requiring step, because you will likely need to enter a wi-fi password."

+ It may save time to fix this at the same time as bug 1047384.
