Wifi and keyboard layouts in openSUSE 11.0

I used this guide again for openSUSE and it worked absolutely perfectly.
The only problem I had was that after the first reboot, openSUSE only picked up my neighbours wifi and not mine (which is about 100 times stronger). But after another reboot, we got over that.
As usual, I tried to insert the keyboard layout icon in the upper panel but had some problems. I've detailed everything, and how I solved it, in this post to openSUSE forums.
