that's a combined issue, the xorg keyboard stack has a limitation for 4 layouts to be configured at the same time, from the video [1] it seems that ubiquity set several english variant layouts and hits that limit, it should probably just configure one...
not a lot that gnome-control-center can do in any case (but it might be fixed with the new GNOME versions which will use ibus only for keyboard handling, that code is not available in Ubuntu yet and still being worked on) [1] https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-control- center/+bug/1055344/+attachment/3337071/+files/layout.webm ** Also affects: ubiquity (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Changed in: gnome-control-center (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Invalid -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-control-center in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1066284 Title: Add keyboard layout button disabled in default live session Status in “gnome-control-center” package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: When booting the quantal iso testing images and selecting Try Ubuntu without changing the language or keyboard layout, it is impossible to add keyboard layouts.
