Public bug reported:

Choose System Settings and Keyboard Layout. Drag "Hebrew" up to the top of the 
list, before "English". This will cause Hebrew to be the default language, and 
will bring up "he" (instead of "en") when you log in.
Unfortunately it also causes Ctrl-A not to work, i.e. Ctrl-A will not choose 
all the text in the Window. Note: in gedit it will continue to choose all the 
text but in a lot of other programs it will not. I found it first in a Java 
program I wrote, but it also happens in Libre Office Text Writer, as well as in 
the terminal.
If I drag "English" up to the top in Keyboard Layout, naturally English will be 
the starting language. If I then switch to Hebrew the Ctrl-A works fine in all 
programs, whether I am in English or in Hebrew.

Thanks,
Ilan
