I copied the layout information from evdev.extras.xml and gnome- control-center picked these up, however after updates (to xkb) these files are reverted and the options are no longer available. gnome-control-center should look in both evdev.xml and evdev.extras.xml for these options To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-control-center/+bug/1029979/+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
