First of all, I think I may know what your problem is for #2: are you by chance using a DVI port to plug your monitor into? If so, try using a VGA port instead and see how it works.

Great going, no change goes without a few wrinkles. But why 7.10 when 8.10 is already out for some time? The latest is always free to download form the servers. When you install 8.10 carefully check which keyboard you have and be sure to choose the right one during the installation process. There is a textfield for testing if you have clicked the right one at that time of installation, and you can still change if not.
