Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: gnome-control-center
On a fresh install of Karmic, under the keyboard layout options, the
right Alt key is selected under "Key to Choose 3rd Level". I'm not even
sure what the 3rd level is, as I've never needed this setting before. On
Jaunty, there is nothing set under this option. As a result on Karmic,
this breaks the right Alt key. For example right Alt+F2 doesn't do
anything. But when you try to uncheck this option, it doesn't remember
the setting. The next time you open the layout options, it's checked
again. There seems to be no way to uncheck this option.
What should happen
1. Open System > Preferences > Keyboard
2. Go to the Layouts tab
3. Click Layout Options
4. Expand Key to Choose 3rd Level
5. Uncheck Right Alt
5. Close the Layout Options window
6. Reopen Layout Options
7. Nothing should be checked under Key to Choose 3rd Level
What happens instead
Right Alt is still selected after unchecking it, closing the Layout Options
window and reopening it.
