10.3.x also had a known bug where the system would revert to the default
keyboard layout for the language youinstalled the system in originally
at every restart (eg: you install the system in French and use a US
keyboard layout: at every restart, the layout would revert back to
French). 10.3 was rather buggy as far as keyboard lyout selection went.
It was corrected in 10.4.0.
