3.4 Keyboard Configuration
Choose the keyboard model that best fits your system (see Figure 3–2, Keyboard Configuration). If
you cannot find an exact match, choose the best
Generic match for your keyboard type (for example,
Generic 101-key PC
).
Next, choose the correct layout type for your keyboard (for example, U.S. English).
Creating special characters with multiple keystrokes (such as Ñ, Ô, and Ç) is done using "dead keys"
(also known as compose key sequences). Dead keys are enabled by default. If you do not wish to use
them, select
Disable dead keys.
To test your keyboard configuration, use the blank text field at the bottom of the screen to enter text.
Once you have made the appropriate selections, click
Next to continue.
