Public bug reported:
Briefly: Ubiquity should ask language first, keyboard distribution
second, Internet connection third and then everything else.
So here is the problem at hand with todays Ubiquity: Imagine someone
like me: a non-English speaker with a non-US keyboard and a non-ASCII
WiFi password. When Ubiquity GTK shows up I choose my language
(spanish), then Ubuiquity tells me I should had enabled an Internet
connection, which is kind of odd since that is next thing Ubiquity tells
me to configure. So I try to setup my WiFi connection, but I find it
impossible since my password requires some spanish symbols like [ñ] or
[¿] which I cannot type because my real keyboard distribution (Latin-
American) hasn't been configured yet.
I've been thinking of telling you guys of this problem for some time
now. I thought you would have figured out by 11.04 but since next
release is an LTS, maybe I should warn you this time.
