Enable skim module with scim-hangul 0.2.2 (http://launchpad.net/bugs/34472)
Make ttf-unfonts as default font for Korean : as described in ["BetterCJKSupportSpecification/FontConfig"]
- Debian's ttf-unfonts maintainer tried this using alias for sans and serif with unfonts, but had an impact on entire fontconfig.
Set DHCP with mac address (http://launchpad.net/bugs/26949)
language-support-ko failed to install with flight5 (https://launchpad.net/bugs/34784)

- With kubuntu flight5, scim-gtk2-immodule not installed out of box. : Not sure this can be fixed because kubuntu-desktop currently depends on scim-qtimm only. For scim-hangul works out of box, scim-gtk2-immodule and scim-qtimm need to be depended by language-support-ko instead of ubuntu-desktop or kubuntu-desktop.
- With xserver-xorg-input-keyboard_1.0.1.3-0ubuntu3, the culprit of "keycodes 209 and 210 not passed" was removed. Successfully tested by the bug reporter.
