My excuse is that I was being surrounded by lots of different old keyboards without Fn keys (my laptop is currently broken), and without so-called internet keys... Actually, I somehow doubt that the keyboard model is really a big problem in the installer. I guess video chipset ,partitionning and the like are much more of a newbie problem. Hard to know though, since I don't remember having problems getting X running in the last 5 years or so (except on unsupported cards of course). Does anyone remember the howto about modelines/video timings by (iirc) ESR ? Once you study that one, X is easy.
