Upgrading from 13.10 to 14.04 reset my formerly Finnish keyboard layout (supposedly into US, based on the comments above — the ö key threw apostrophes and the ä key semicolons). To restore it, I
1) opened up "Input Method", a dialog window titled "Input Method Configuration (im-config, ver. 0.24-1ubuntu3)", 2) failed to understand what the long and technical message* was trying to say, and just clicked "OK", 3) bravely answered "Yes" to the next question although it was not the recommended option, 4) selected "none" in a menu where "ibus" was selected (and probably clicked "OK" or something to confirm it**), 5) logged out and then logged back in. *"Explicit selection is not required to enable the automatic configuration if the active one is default/auto/cjkv/missing. Available input methods: ibus xim. Unless you really need them all, please make sure to install only one input method tool." Not very helpful advice to a regular user. **I can't repeat the final step right now: the view where I changed "ibus" into "none" yesterday is broken today (a screenshot is attached). ** Attachment added: "a screenshot of the Input Method Configuration window" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ibus/+bug/1284635/+attachment/4081425/+files/im-config.png -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to ibus in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1284635 Title: ibus does not support certain keyboard layouts Status in “ibus” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in “ibus” source package in Trusty: Triaged Bug description: installed trusty beta1 with keyboard layout set correctly during install install completes, login to new install - layout as set during install once logged in - layout set to US and keyboard layout set during install is missing from list ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 14.04 Package: keyboard-configuration 1.70ubuntu8 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.13.0-12.32-generic 3.13.4 Uname: Linux 3.13.0-12-generic i686 ApportVersion: 2.13.2-0ubuntu5 Architecture: i386 CurrentDesktop: XFCE Date: Tue Feb 25 12:55:56 2014 InstallationDate: Installed on 2014-02-25 (0 days ago) InstallationMedia: Xubuntu 14.04 LTS "Trusty Tahr" - Alpha i386 (20140225) PackageArchitecture: all SourcePackage: console-setup UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ibus/+bug/1284635/+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
