Some additional information Login via ctr/alt/F1 with my "Swedish" password works. /etc/default/keyboard contains XKBMODEL = pc105 LAYOUT = se VARIANT = basic (OPTIONS is blank) *** does not work only option = ru ***
sudo setxkbmap -option grp:alt_shift_toggle ru,se sudo dpkg-reconfigure console-setup *** does not work - still only option = ru *** I saw that a bugfix is ready for two ubuntu versions and being tested for two other versions (bug 995401?), but that will not help me, since I cannot login to X Windows and fetch the bugfix. Or is there some way to start up X from a terminal login???

I have set up 3 different keyboards, sv, en and ru. This has worked for some time. Now only ru is present at login and cannot be changed. Latin character password using cyrillic character keyboard does not work! The problem is similar to bug #997140. Workaround (partly): ctr/alt/F1 login works. Running login or reboot -fv in terminal mode starts with shutdown(!) Can I change keyboard to sv in terminal mode? Package: lightdm? Expected: login Happened instead: wrong password To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lightdm/+bug/1019772/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
