Public bug reported:
Problem:
I can't use the keyboard mapping recently chosen.
Details:
Selecting anything other than the US International with dead keys layout from
the Unity applet doesn't invoke a layout change. Going to
gnome-keyboard-properties and high lighting and moving desired layout to top
don't help.
gnome-control-center version:
Version: 1:3.4.1-0ubuntu1
Reproducible?
100% on my system
Steps to Reproduce:
1.log in and change keyboard layout from US International with dead keys to
"anything else" via the Unity applet
2. type
Actual results:
US International with dead keys layout continues to be in effect.
The following two commands results don't change regardless of what
Keyboard Layout or "applet" selection.
cat /etc/default/keyboard
XKBMODEL="pc104"
XKBLAYOUT="us"
XKBVARIANT="intl"
XKBOPTIONS="terminate:ctrl_alt_bksp"
cat ~/.dmrc
[Desktop]
Language=en_US.utf8
Layout=us mac
Langlist=en_US:en
LCMess=en_US.UTF-8
Session=ubuntu
gconftool-2 -R /desktop/gnome/peripherals/keyboard/kbd
model = macintosh_hhk
layouts = [us intl,us alt-intl,us altgr-intl,us colemak]
options = [terminate terminate:ctrl_alt_bksp,keypad keypad:atm,grp
grp:shift_caps_toggle]
Expected results:
"Anything else" layout is nowhere to be seen, US International with dead keys
remains activated.
Workaround
-seems to be to choose the layout from lightdm.
Comments
I don't seem to have gnome-keyboard-properties since running that from terminal
doesn't produce the Keyboard Layout pane. Is gnome-keyboard-properties part of
Precise?
Control Center shouldn't be overridden by system settings. Rather, it
should allow the user to change the system defaults or change it on
behalf of the user.
