    A temporary fix is to open a terminal and type "setxkbmap xx" where xx is the language code (e.g. fr for French). This works but needs to be redone after each reboot. I am still looking for a permanent solution. Are there no Linux experts out there who can solve this problem ?

    [Solved] Keyboard map has changed after update

    Yes, several elements are updated after running from the front-end:
    > Settings
    > Live Update
    > Update
    [attachment=0:d2wsko1f]Screenshot_update.png[/attachment:d2wsko1f]

    Should solve the EN(UK) keyboard layout problem as it now displays for me EN(US) instead of EN only before. :geek:
    (You can put [Solved] on the topic header?)

    Any other problems solved?

    I have just run the updates and it has solved nothing for me. I still have the OS in English with a UK keyboard map and no way of activating the French keyboard map that I require. Changing the settings in SCIM to French still has no effect.
