    Hi all, i have just purchased an Acer Aspire 1 running Limpus. I have found what i think is a fault on my keyboard, when i press the @ on the 2 key i get a Quotation, when i press the Quotation key i get the @? Has anyone else had this same problem, or is it my so far limited knowedge of this particular machine.? If it is a problem, is there a fix? :?

    Looks like a keyboard mapping problem. Keyboard is labeled as a standard US keyboard, but the system is actually using something else.
