Comment(by bernie):

 This *may* be related, but we need to ask this user what's the keyboard
 layout of his/her laptop:

 {{{
 <Arael6> I have B4
 <Arael6> and I cannot write "h" when I press "h" it writes "u"
 <Arael6> so cd home becomes cd uome etc
 <dwmw2_BOS> oh, I think that's fixed n 651
 <Arael6> no
 <Arael6> I tried 653 and I still have "u"
 <dwmw2_BOS> hm, let me poke bernie
 <Arael6> in 625 it worked fine
 <Arael6> this is really strange bug I have never seen anything like this
 on any computer before
 <Arael6> one instantly appreciates the value of "h" ;-)
 <ttuttle> Arael6: Ou, tuere's no need for u, really.  Wuo uses it?
 Altuougu I guess it migut get irritating.
 <tomeu> Arael6: eben reported that bug and was fixed by _bernie, if I
 remember well
 * dwmw2_BOS does the _bernie-summoning dance
 <tomeu> Arael6: I think the nigerian keyboard has those key swapped
 <tomeu> perhaps the ticket has some workaround you can use
 <dwmw2_BOS> https://dev.laptop.org/ticket/4776
 * tomeu suffers because his czech keyboard has the y and z swapped
 <[31d1]> i suppose it too much to hope that u would makeh
 <Arael6> no I can write only "u"
 <Arael6> both h and u write "u"
 <Arael6> so there is no way I can write "h"
 <dwmw2_BOS> _bernie claims it is fixed in joyride
 <dwmw2_BOS> fix needs backporting to the 65x builds
 <_bernie> Arael6: http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/4776
 <Arael6> I would like to downgrade to 625 - h works there normally
