Something similar has been happening to me occasionally since I bought
my Plus about three years ago--every so often my French-Canadian
keyboard disappears and is replaced in Key Caps by a bizarre layout
with no keypad and with any number of keys rearranged (the most
annoying is that usually the 'Return' key is replaced by the 'grave
accent' key which is normally located just to the left of it).  I used
to shut down and reboot, which would cure the problem until the next
time, but now I just unplug the keyboard from the Mac, wait a few
secs, and plug it in again.  Works like a charm (of course I guess you
wouldn't want to try that if you had an ADB connection).  Anyone know
what might cause this?
