Status in central project for keyboard configuration: Confirmed

Bug description:
Gutsy Gibbon Tribe 5 / MacBook 13" Finnish/Swedish model.

After install Macbook/Macbook pro keyboard layout is not detected. You need to set it manually in Gnome settings.

The "Third Lever Chooser" setting in Keyboard preferences > Layout options is wrong. It's "Use right ALT for Third Lever Chooser." MacBooks have only left alt. You need to set it to "Use any alt for Third Lever Chooser".
