This is still an issue in Ubuntu Precise fully updated.
1) If I use autologin, everything is fine, my keyboard layout is the same as
the system default, En/El.
2) If I use the greeter:
* I only have "En" available in the greeter,
* I only have "En" available in the session,
* I don't get a keyboard layout panel applet in the session.
System settings:
================
alkisg@server:~$ cat /var/lib/AccountsService/users/alkisg
[User]
XSession=ubuntu
XKeyboardLayouts=
Icon=/usr/share/pixmaps/faces/guitar.jpg
alkisg@server:~$ cat .dmrc
[Desktop]
Session=ubuntu
alkisg@server:~$ cat /etc/default/keyboard
# Check /usr/share/doc/keyboard-configuration/README.Debian for
# documentation on what to do after having modified this file.
# The following variables describe your keyboard and can have the same
# values as the XkbModel, XkbLayout, XkbVariant and XkbOptions options
# in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.
XKBMODEL="pc105"
XKBLAYOUT="us,gr"
XKBVARIANT=","
XKBOPTIONS="grp:alt_shift_toggle,grp_led:scroll"
# If you don't want to use the XKB layout on the console, you can
# specify an alternative keymap. Make sure it will be accessible
# before /usr is mounted.
# KMAP=/etc/console-setup/defkeymap.kmap.gz
Result with autologin (no greeter, no problem):
===============================================
alkisg@server:~$ setxkbmap -print
xkb_keymap {
xkb_keycodes { include "evdev+aliases(qwerty)" };
xkb_types { include "complete" };
xkb_compat { include "complete+ledscroll(group_lock)" };
xkb_symbols { include
"pc+us+gr:2+inet(evdev)+group(alt_shift_toggle)" };
xkb_geometry { include "pc(pc105)" };
};
Result with lightdm-greeter (problem):
======================================
alkisg@server:~$ setxkbmap -print
xkb_keymap {
xkb_keycodes { include "evdev+aliases(qwerty)" };
xkb_types { include "complete" };
xkb_compat { include "complete" };
xkb_symbols { include "pc+us+inet(evdev)" };
xkb_geometry { include "pc(pc105)" };
};
