I know you can select it at the gdm window, and I don't recall needing to use the root password to change keyboard layout last time I had need to. Sound card is a little harder because it requires loading a kernel module, printing could be done probably through cups w/o needing root - though privilege to alter the cups profile to add a printer would be needed (at least in some cases, kudzu does a pretty good job at picking up directly attached printers) -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
