These are three bug reports.

1. The keyboard indicator applet should be configured to be activated through installation, when the installer is about to setup more than one keyboard layouts.

2. This is also an upstream issue, and we should link to a bug report in bugzilla.gnome.org, under Product: gnome-applets, Component: keyboard indicator Either an existing report on this issue, or a new bug report.
The rational here is that we want any action that adds a second (or more) keyboard layouts, should trigger the keyboard indicator to show up on the task bar.

3. When you install Ubuntu 9.10 with Greek support, the default layouts are "us,gr" and "gr". This is messy and should be fixed. The user iterates between "us, gr, gr" when switching layouts, which obviously is messy.

NB: When you install Linux with Greek keyboard layouts, you select the "Greek" layout instead of "Greek Extended". We do not use "Greek Extended" anymore. "Greek" is now a superset of "Greek Extended". Thus, when you install Ubuntu Linux, you do not change the default during the Keyboard layout step.
We tell everyone to make installations with the "Greek" keyboard layout.
