Bug ID: 417025
Summary: xmodmap key configurations resets when usb is plugged
Product: plasmashell
Version: 5.17.5
Platform: Ubuntu Packages
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: minor
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: k...@davidedmundson.co.uk
Reporter: alpi.tolva...@tutanota.com
CC: plasma-b...@kde.org
Target Milestone: 1.0
SUMMARY
Key configurations set with xmodmap resets when any usb device is plugged.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Run xmodmap command. For example, the following command changes caps lock to
shift.
xmodmap -e "keycode 66 = Shift_L"
2. Press configured button, to test that remapping works.
3. Plug usb device such as mouse.
4. Press configured button, and that reconfiguration has disappeared.
OBSERVED RESULT
Xmodmap settings has reseted.
EXPECTED RESULT
Xmodmap settings would stay the same.
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: kernel is 5.3.0-29-generic
KDE Plasma Version: 5.17.5
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.66
Qt Version: 5.12.4
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
There is easy to work-around if key configurations are placed in ~/.Xmodmap. I
have therefore no problems with this issue, but I reported it because that
behaviour was not expected. This behaviour was not present in Kubuntu 18.04.
(I'm noob, sorry if this issue is not kde related.)
