I'm using Asus PadFone with it's native keyboard dock-station. When I try enter text on any text field in web page my keyboard layout is set to english. This doesn't hapen when i write text in Firefox search/url field. Tested with Russian and Lithuanian keyboard layout - it makes no difference. I can write national symbols with on-screen keyboard. There is no such problems with other browsers, so it's something with Firefox.

Sounds like https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=669361 tomorrow's Firefox nightly build may have a fix for it. You can try the build at http://nightly.mozilla.org
