Can't select language keyboard layout by character-keys

[cg]

It would be nice, if you allow using the full keyboard to select language etc. at installer time.
Now you need to use cursor keys, debian etc. allow to e.g. use "g" to quickly come down to "german" (pressing g several times, it walks down the "g"-list and starts from first "g"-entry, after reaching the end.

Not sure if it's a keymapping-problem from XenCenter, but I also couldn't use page up and page down, which 'exploded' a bit by exiting the current menu.

Hey cg,

Which image was this? 17.1-BETA is a little funky, 17.1-RC will not be (like 16.7 hopefully).

Need to spend some quality time with the installer for 17.7, I'll add the navigation improvements to my list so thanks for this.


Cheers,
Franco

Hey Franco!

It was 16.7.12 (from early January), didn't test the 17 betas.

Hi Christof,

Ok, just to be clear: serial or vga or cdrom?


Thanks,
Franco
