Package: xserver-xorg-input-kbd Version: 1:1.3.1-1 Severity: important Tags: l10n
I'm not sure if this is the correct package to file this bug against. Please reassign if required. If you set xorg.conf to have more than one keyboard layout: Option "XkbLayout" "it,gb" OPtion "XkbOptions" "grp:menu_toggle" (togglable with alt-menu key) then the italian keyboard works just fine, but If I toggle to the gb keyboard then only the symbol keys like @?<>,.-_=+[{]}\| work OK ' all the letter keys produce strange characters : @Åe¶ŧâââøþ æÃðÄÅħjĸŠ«»¢âânµ (the above should be: qwertyuiop asdfghjkl zxcvbnm ) Toggling back and forth this is entirely repeatable. It doesn't seem to matter what the 1st layout is - the 2nd layout is always broken. Interestingly I can produce the same problem a different way using the gnome keyboard config utility. I installed it as a UK (british) machine with UK keyboard layout and en_GB.UTF-8 default locale. Setting a different layout/language there works fine (I tested with Finnish) until you reboot. Then the main layout is broken in the same way Setting back to en works fine. Selecting Finnish again remains broken. Setting it to any new layout works until after a reboot when it is broken again. This seems to be a serious problem for anyone wanting to have a machine with a non-UK keyboard layout. -- System Information: Debian Release: 5.0 APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.26-1-686 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages xserver-xorg-input-kbd depends on: ii libc6 2.7-18 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii xserver-xorg-core 2:1.4.2-10 Xorg X server - core server xserver-xorg-input-kbd recommends no packages. xserver-xorg-input-kbd suggests no packages. -- no debconf information ______________________________________________________________________ This email has been scanned by the MessageLabs Email Security System.
