I don't think that Japanese support is very good with this
Suse release (we probably heard the same rumors ;-) and I am not 
very good at the Japanese stuff but I will check when I get access
to the computer (it's at the office and I am at home right now).

There is no USB keyboard on the Dell CPx but there is a USB bus 
somewhere (I think).
