I have remastered the Hardy beta LiveCD after having updated the gtk+2.0
package and I do confirm that VIQR is not anymore activated by default
for Vietnamese locale!
I have also installed the scim-m17n package to test m17n-db bugs
corrections and I do confirm that Telex is now working appropriate

About which SCIM method to select, no problem. As soon as all required

This should pull the packages in automatically when installing language-support

Oh, and to answer Colin about console-setup (which is about console

Hi,
Yes I think that "Standard US Layout" would be fine!
At least, it's the choice that I currently do with all Ubuntu installations
I've made using Qwerty keyboards in Vietnam so far.
With regards to the Telex input, I'm not very sure what to say. I know
that there is a "m17n" package which add
Should it be us(intl) - that is, "USA - International (with dead keys)",
