I'm sure the French keyboard works fine. Both my keyboards are UK ones, and are "qwerty" ones, whereas the French keyboard is "azerty". I am used to typing on the "qwerty" ones, and the Canadian one was a compromise. It is a "qwerty" keyboard, but has also the French accented keys on it. The only keys I can't find on it are the "pipe" "|" , the "<" , and the ">" commands. I've had to swap back to the US keyboard to add those to this post.
