Indeed, the key is that the *model* was set to `pc98`, resulting in applying a legacy US layout, with some keys missing and requiring options to set them. The model you chose is unlikely to be default in your distro, so you chose it somehow. Some guesses: 1. Unintentionally chose the model with an unlucky mouse wheel move. 2. Your layout is 96%, so maybe you chose it for the similarity. > This is even more confusing now...... Did the update change the default > layout? I previously thought it was because of the change in the low-level encoding of some modifiers. But no, it is due to the fix that *actually* apply the legacy layout corresponding to the model. So previously, you got the layout as if you chose the generic 101 model, but that was by chance due to a bug. Now that the bug is fixed, you get the layout that is correct for the keyboard model PC-98, but incorrect for you since itโs not the right model. > > BTW, I am using a keyboard as > https://gameroom.lt/100212/royal-kludge-rk96-black-wireless-mechanical.jpg > which have 96 keys. I don't seem to find the exact match in KDE settings, > could you give some suggestions? The list of models is primarily for legacy hardware. You know, when there was no USB or such ๐. For modern keyboard, the generic 101/102/104/105 will do. You will not get a picture of your exact model, but the layout will work as expected. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
