Bug Description
Binary package hint: onboard
I use a Japanese keyboard layout on my desktop. When running onboard, it correctly detects this, and displays a Japanese keyboard layout to select the keys. Unfortunately, when keys are selected, the character sent to the receiving application matches that of the character that would be sent for that key in a US layout (e.g. & is sent for ', ' is sent for :, and * is sent for ) ).

The newer version in my PPA might have a fix for your problem. If you are going to test it, could you please tell us whether it works as expected?
