    It is known issue and really FAQ here. NEVER-EVER use m$
localizers for your console font/keyboard layout (keyb and stuff)!
Use your favorite local localizer you used last 10 years
(keyrus for cyrillic, for example). (It doesn't mean you won't have
problems with it, but probably problems won't be so stupid as
inability to use cursor keys).
