As an ordinary Gentoo Linux user, I: - download patch attached to this issue named "The same patch, but based on 1.19.1 (fixed)" into directory /etc/portage/patches/x11-base/xorg-server/ - run `emerge xorg-server` to reinstall Xorg with this patch applied - restart X to enjoy working hotkeys :) If users of other Linux distributions have issues with this - probably they just didn't use "newer Linux". -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to the bug report. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/36812 Title: Keyboard layout change on hotkeys press instead of release and do not work well with shortcuts To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gnome-control-center/+bug/36812/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

(In reply to Kovács Viktor from comment #181) > Sorry, on newer Linux you can set up hot key combination for that problem as > graphical UI settings, older Linux versions will not be updated. What exactly "newer Linux" is supposed to mean? I'm using yesterday's updated Gentoo Linux with xorg-server-1.19.5 and Fluxbox - is it counts as "newer"? Or by "newer Linux" you mean something like "modern KDE only"? (In reply to k0fe from comment #183) > Sorry, but where do you see "good proposed solution"? Please, please show me > that solution. There is a patch, working good enough for years without creating any new (practical) issues. In comment #161 is was proposed to make it configurable option to make everyone happy and let users choose between using compliant protocol or working hotkeys. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to the bug report. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/36812 Title: Keyboard layout change on hotkeys press instead of release and do not work well with shortcuts To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gnome-control-center/+bug/36812/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

(In reply to comment #117) Similarly, shifting group with Shift+Right Alt (where Shift is pressed first): Is this mean your patch won't work when Alt (or Ctrl) is pressed before Shift? AFAIK most people press Ctrl, then Shift, then either release them (to switch layout) or press A-Z when they need Ctrl-Shift-something hotkey. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to the bug report. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/36812 Title: Keyboard layout change on hotkeys press instead of release and do not work well with shortcuts To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gnome-control-center/+bug/36812/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

While this patch solve conflict between keyboard layout switching hotkey and other hotkeys, it doesn't fix this issue in general. For example, in one have hotkey defined for Win key (a.k.a. Super_L), and for Win+something, the first hotkey handler will always run when Win key DOWN, thus pressing Win+something will result in executing both Win and Win+something handlers. It should be fixed in same way: process current key combination on first UP event after a sequence of DOWN events, not on first DOWN. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to the bug report. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/36812 Title: Keyboard layout change on hotkeys press instead of release and do not work well with shortcuts To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gnome-control-center/+bug/36812/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
