The command line way to enable the extra layouts is: gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.input-sources show-all-sources true

So it is impossible to use Unity keyboard configuration tool to set an extra keyboard layout (such as Iran: Avestan; Lithuania: Dvorak; USA: International (AltGr Unicode combining|alternative), Atsina, Couer D'alene Salish; Romania: Ergonomic Touchtype; Serbia: Combining accents instead of dead keys; Russia: Church Slavonic, RUU; etc.). KDE4 loads these layouts without any user actions. GNOME2 makes these layouts visible in keyboard setting dialog through enabling "load-extra-items" option. But Unity can't do this in any way. (furthermore, as ~/.Xkbmap settings ignoring or overriding by DE, it is impossible to set extra keyboard layout at all without making startup script) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gnome-control-center/+bug/1009995/+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
