Yes.  This makes the alphanumeric keys work OK.

However, some of the symbol keys are still incorrect.

On the top-left, below ESC, just to the left of the ‘1’ key, the key
is engraved with ‘§’ and ‘±’, but produces ‘`’ and ‘~’.  Just
left of ‘Z’, the key is engraved with ‘`’ and ‘~’, but produces 
‘<’ and ‘>’.

Also, the keyboard does not produce a ‘#’when pressing Right-Alt+3,
but AFAICT this isn't a new regression.  This would match the
behaviour under OS X (but I'm not sure this is necessarily best fixed
in the same way).


I also tested the "power_g5" option.  This also restores the alphabet
keys, but several of the symbol keys are incorrect.  The system I'm
using is a G4 Apple Mac Mini system with an Apple USB keyboard (UK
layout).

Roger
