Yes, this box is running KDE.
The regional settings show "United Kingdom".
The only thing that is different to other boxen of mine is that I have not set
up /etc/hal/fdi/policy/10-keymap.fdi to define:
<merge key="input.xkb.layout" type="string">uk</merge>
When I set up such a file in /etc/ then I can no longer use the keyboard in
KDE. I have to fall back to a console and work from there.
