Thanks Norbert for your testing work and your bug reports! Some comments
> * default Super+Space and Shift+Super+Space does not work (bug 1245136) - the most important bug (it's default hotkey!!!). That could be bug #1249208. It works here after running ibus-setup and changing the ibus key to something else > * non-latin shortcuts are broken (see bug 1226962) - the most important bug > (affects many multi-layout users), That bug seems to list several issues. The gsd keybindings, e.g ctrl- alt-L ... did that ever worked? I installed 13.04 which has the old stack and tried that: - added a Russian keymap - binded ctrl-alt-C to the calculator - changed the active layout to russian - hit ctrl-alt-c (or ctrl-alt-l) That doesn't work ... it seems like that's not a new issue/not due to the 13.10 changes Note that keybindings not working in e.g libreoffice is another issue and due to the GNOME implementation choices, they consider that libreoffice needs to be fixed, see the first comment on https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=55585 which explain that. Note sure if others applications hit the same issue (gtk does the correct thing so GTK software are fine, firefox and Qt application seem to not have the issue either) > * shortcuts starting with Ctrl+Shift+ got broken if layout switchin set to > Ctrl+Shift (bug 1246656) - the most important bug (affects many multi-layout > users). Right, that's a annoying one, the only way to fix it is to move the key grabbing in unity, we are working on that but it's technically non trivial and take some time > * some shortcut combinations started with Win or Alt open a HUD - bug with > the lowest importance. That's not a new issue either ** Bug watch added: freedesktop.org Bugzilla #55585 https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=55585 -- 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/1218322 Title: Can't set keyboard layout change to alt+shift, ctrl+shift, etc. Status in Gnome Settings Daemon: Invalid Status in Ubuntu GNOME: Confirmed Status in “gnome-control-center” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in “gnome-settings-daemon” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in “gnome-settings-daemon” source package in Saucy: Triaged Bug description: A PPA which should provide some relief for this issue is available at https://launchpad.net/~attente/+archive/1218322. There still remain issues regarding keyboard shortcuts though. To install: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:attente/1218322 sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get upgrade === gnome-control-center === Impact: the UI to change the layout switching keys doesn't work Test case: - open gnome-control-center's text input settings - click on the "next layout key" entry - try entering a key combinaison (e.g ctrl-space) -> the UI should reflect the new keys Regression potential: that UI was not working before, it should only be an improvement (some key combos are not working as expected, that's another issue and shouldn't be mixed with this one) === gnome-settings-daemon === Impact: attempting to change keyboard layouts using only modifier keys doesn't work Test case: - add at least two input sources through gnome-control-center's text entry settings - use gsettings to set the input switching shortcut to ctrl+left shift: gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.wm.keybindings switch-input-source "['<Primary>Shift_L']" - press and release ctrl+left shift -> the current input source should change Regression potential: The input switching shortcut might capture other non-modifier shortcuts, but users will need to consider this when choosing their switching shortcut anyways. For users this bug affects, this represents a working solution for a critical bug. ---------------------- Test results for different keyboard layout change hotkeys may be viewed and added in the Google Docs table, created by Norbert (https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0Ao5e713Ig9g_dEJrX2NRYlpLWWVzSWxsVXU4ck9HYVE&usp=sharing). ---------------------- Separate bug reports for individual layout switching hotkey combinations: Super+Space and Shift+Super+Space: * Unity greeter (bug 1245137); * Unity session (bug 1245136); * lock screen - gnome-screensaver (bug 1245138, bug 1245256); * ubiquity installer (bug 1242572). Alt+Shift: * Unity greeter (bug 1245258) * Can't set keyboard layout change to Alt+Shift (bug 1245926) Ctrl+Shift: * lock screen - gnome-screensaver (bug 1245270) * Unity greeter (bug 1245268) * Can't set keyboard layout change to Ctrl+Shift (bug 1245991) * If keyboard layout switching hotkey is set to Ctrl+Shift, Ctrl+Shift+C/V are not working in gnome-terminal (bug 1246656) Shift+Shift: * Can't set keyboard layout change to Shift+Shift (bug 1245272) * lock screen - gnome-screensaver (bug 1245278) * Unity greeter (bug 1245280) Bugs which belong to keyboard layout switching: * Hotkeys not functional in non-latin keyboard layout in 13.10 (bug 1226962) * Keyboard Layout Options window is missed in gnome-control-center keyboard (bug 1245064) * Unable to set keyboard LED to show alternative layout in gnome-control-center keyboard in Saucy (bug 1245188) * Unable to set Miscellaneous compatibility options in gnome-control-center keyboard in Saucy (bug 1245199) * Keyboard shortcut for changing keyboard layout does not work on lock screen (bug 1244548) * [FFe] indicator-keyboard not working under greeter (bug 1228207) * Lost ability to remap Caps Lock to Ctrl (bug 1215826) * gnome-control-center keyboard no longer has way to modify caps lock key behavior (bug 1224575) * Pressing Caps Lock toggles LED even when mapped to another key (bug 1221403) * Switching layout turns off NumLock (bug 1247668) ---------------------- Can't set keyboard layout change to ctrl+shift, Caps Lock, alt+shift etc. "Shift", "CapsLock" keys are just ignored in settings. Also the default shortcut was set to "Super+Space" that is inconveniently, because Dash is opening when you swich your keyboard layout.
