I haven't found the exact source of the bug yet though I can confirm it's a KDE only bug.

There seems to be some missing layouts in the variantMap. I'll have another look later/tomorrow and see if I can maybe get the logic of the gtk version into the qt one.

Actually, it also affects the gtk frontend, it just doesn't crash :)
This is most likely caused by console-setup not being in sync with what our X server supports, I'm doing a test rebuild to ensure this fixes it.

summary: - Kubuntu 12.04 Beta 1: ubiquity crash at keyboard selection
+ keyboard_names.py and console-setup's layout/variant list don't match
