Description	The issue is similar to another bug #6227475, which is already fixed and verified, but when new keyboard software was delivered to snv_30, bug occurs again for these new layouts. All new keyboard software is listed in #6217588 (Bulgaria, Croatia, Albania, Belarus, Macedonia, Serbia, Malta, Slovakia, Iceland, Slovenia) Setting these layouts in Xorg and sun_typ6_usb keyboards results that whole layout is shifted to the right by one column, which makes it in fact totaly unoperable, work around is to set pc105 keyboard instead of sun_type6. For more info please see original bug #6227475 for detailed description. This bug can be reproduced on Slovenia and Slovakia sub_type6_usb keyboards as well. However on Icelandic keyboards it is working as expected (meaning that the keys are not shifted by 1 column).
Work Around	Users can set up generic PC keyboard in xorg instead of Sun Type 6 to avoid layout problems. This is quite easy work around, thus lowering the priority to p3.
