I haven't had a look at the beginner's guide, but here is what you should know:

If you are running hal and have an english layout - you should have to
do nothing at all.
If you're not using an english layout, you need to tweak some hal config files
If you're not running hal, you need to disable hotplugging in xorg.conf
