  From duplicate bug 1720364 report.

  Steps to reproduce:
  1. Install ubuntu-mate-desktop on Ubuntu 16.04 LTS with HWE (Xorg 1.19.5), or 
17.10 or 18.04 LTS.
  2. Set-up two keyboard layouts - English and Russian
  3. Set  as keyboard layout switcher in mate-control-center
  4. Try to use shortcuts starting from :
  4.1. Open Firefox, open new tab, go to some site in it, close tab, try to 
click  to restore closed tab.
  4.2. Open mate-terminal, try to open new tab with , or copy 
(), or paste ().
  4.3. Open pluma, write some text, try to navigate in it with 
.

  Expected results:
   switches keyboard layout, shortcuts starting from 
 work normally.

  Actual results:
   switches keyboard layout, shortcuts starting from 
 do not work.

  Notes:
  1. Ubuntu 16.04 LTS (Xorg 1.18.4) with Marco and Compton work normally with 
 keyboard layout switcher.
  2. This problem was discovered before on 13.10, 14.04 and other modern 
versions with GNOME desktop (Metacity and Compiz) - see bug 1245473.

  Original description below:

  This is a reopen of bug #36812, which has reappeared in Kubuntu 17.04
  Zesty Zapus.

  This is a bug about shortcuts mapped to combinations which include
  each other.

  For example, if we have Ctrl+Shift (for keyboard layout) and Ctrl+Shift+N (to 
open a new terminal), then we are practically unable to use the second 
shortcut; this is what happens:
  Ctrl press (nothing happens)
  Shift press (keyboard layout change)
  N (a simple N appears, since a shortcut has already fired)

  The expected behavior is to fire shortcuts on the release (not on
  press) of the special keys (ctrl,shift,alt, etc) which is also how
  Windows behave. This is a serious problem for bilingual layouts,
  typically using Alt+Shift or Ctrl+Shift for keyboard layout change.

  Apparently, the bug has reappeared after the patch that used to fix
  the problem (208_switch_on_release.diff) has been removed from X.Org
  1.19 packages. There is an updated patch in the upstream ticket
  https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=865 (link to the
  attachment: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/attachment.cgi?id=129861).

  Zesty Zapus.

  This is a bug about shortcuts mapped to combinations which include
  each other.

  For example, if we have Ctrl+Shift (for keyboard layout) and Ctrl+Shift+N (to 
open a new terminal), then we are practically unable to use the second 
shortcut; this is what happens:
  Ctrl press (nothing happens)
  Shift press (keyboard layout change)
  N (a simple N appears, since a shortcut has already fired)

  The expected behavior is to fire shortcuts on the release (not on
  press) of the special keys (ctrl,shift,alt, etc) which is also how
  Windows behave. This is a serious problem for bilingual layouts,
  typically using Alt+Shift or Ctrl+Shift for keyboard layout change.

  Apparently, the bug has reappeared after the patch that used to fix
  the problem (208_switch_on_release.diff) has been removed from X.Org
  1.19 packages. There is an updated patch in the upstream ticket
  https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=865 (link to the

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1683383] Re: Keyboard layout change on hotkeys press instead of release and do not work well with shortcuts (reopen)

[Jacob Becker]

To whom it may concern, I have uploaded xorg-server 1.20.8 packages for
Ubuntu 18.04.5 amd64 (with the patch from
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=865 applied) to
https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1s4NavrQ4LBrafbTBd3ASRZ22vK7Nblvc?usp=sharing

Generally, to get the topic issue fixed, you need to install only one of
the packages: xserver-xorg-core-
hwe-18.04_1.20.8-2ubuntu2.2~18.04.1_amd64.deb

To apply the patch and build the binaries and packages, I used my script
mentioned in comment #25.

  press) of the special keys (ctrl,shift,alt, etc) which is also how
  Windows behave. This is a serious problem for bilingual layouts,
  typically using Alt+Shift or Ctrl+Shift for keyboard layout change.

  Apparently, the bug has reappeared after the patch that used to fix
  the problem (208_switch_on_release.diff) has been removed from X.Org
  1.19 packages. There is an updated patch in the upstream ticket

  1. Install ubuntu-mate-desktop on Ubuntu 16.04 LTS with HWE (Xorg 1.19.5), or 
17.10 or 18.04 LTS.
  2. Set-up two keyboard layouts - English and Russian
  3. Set  as keyboard layout switcher in mate-control-center
  4. Try to use shortcuts starting from :
  4.1. Open Firefox, open new tab, go to some site in it, close tab, try to 
click  to restore closed tab.
  4.2. Open mate-terminal, try to open new tab with , or copy 
(), or paste ().
  4.3. Open pluma, write some text, try to navigate in it with 
.

  Expected results:
   switches keyboard layout, shortcuts starting from 
 work normally.

  Actual results:
   switches keyboard layout, shortcuts starting from 
 do not work.

  Notes:
  1. Ubuntu 16.04 LTS (Xorg 1.18.4) with Marco and Compton work normally with 
 keyboard layout switcher.
  2. This problem was discovered before on 13.10, 14.04 and other modern 
versions with GNOME desktop (Metacity and Compiz) - see bug 1245473.

  This is a reopen of bug #36812, which has reappeared in Kubuntu 17.04
  Zesty Zapus.

  This is a bug about shortcuts mapped to combinations which include
  each other.

  For example, if we have Ctrl+Shift (for keyboard layout) and Ctrl+Shift+N (to 
open a new terminal), then we are practically unable to use the second 
shortcut; this is what happens:
  Ctrl press (nothing happens)
  Shift press (keyboard layout change)
  N (a simple N appears, since a shortcut has already fired)

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1683383] Re: Keyboard layout change on hotkeys press instead of release and do not work well with shortcuts (reopen)

[Snaker]

@Norbert
Update:
After cleaning up changes and applying your ppa:nrbrtx/xorg-hotkeys it fixes 
the issue partially - it still change input language on key press, but allow to 
use shortcuts  (with changing language in the process).

  From duplicate bug 1720364 report.

  Steps to reproduce:
  1. Install ubuntu-mate-desktop on Ubuntu 16.04 LTS with HWE (Xorg 1.19.5), or 
17.10 or 18.04 LTS.
  2. Set-up two keyboard layouts - English and Russian
  3. Set  as keyboard layout switcher in mate-control-center
  4. Try to use shortcuts starting from :
  4.1. Open Firefox, open new tab, go to some site in it, close tab, try to 
click  to restore closed tab.
  4.2. Open mate-terminal, try to open new tab with , or copy 
(), or paste ().
  4.3. Open pluma, write some text, try to navigate in it with 
.

  Expected results:
   switches keyboard layout, shortcuts starting from 
 work normally.

  Actual results:
   switches keyboard layout, shortcuts starting from 
 do not work.

  Notes:
  1. Ubuntu 16.04 LTS (Xorg 1.18.4) with Marco and Compton work normally with 
 keyboard layout switcher.
  2. This problem was discovered before on 13.10, 14.04 and other modern 
versions with GNOME desktop (Metacity and Compiz) - see bug 1245473.

  Original description below:

  This is a reopen of bug #36812, which has reappeared in Kubuntu 17.04
  Zesty Zapus.

  This is a bug about shortcuts mapped to combinations which include
  each other.

  For example, if we have Ctrl+Shift (for keyboard layout) and Ctrl+Shift+N (to 
open a new terminal), then we are practically unable to use the second 
shortcut; this is what happens:
  Ctrl press (nothing happens)
  Shift press (keyboard layout change)
  N (a simple N appears, since a shortcut has already fired)

  The expected behavior is to fire shortcuts on the release (not on
  press) of the special keys (ctrl,shift,alt, etc) which is also how
  Windows behave. This is a serious problem for bilingual layouts,
  typically using Alt+Shift or Ctrl+Shift for keyboard layout change.

  Apparently, the bug has reappeared after the patch that used to fix
  the problem (208_switch_on_release.diff) has been removed from X.Org
  1.19 packages. There is an updated patch in the upstream ticket
  https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=865 (link to the
  attachment: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/attachment.cgi?id=129861).

@Norbert
I have the same problem on Ubuntu 18.04 LTS with GNOME.
I tried your instruction from #40 without any success. Do you have an idea how 
to make it work?

P.S. How can I roll back changes?

  This is a reopen of bug #36812, which has reappeared in Kubuntu 17.04
  Zesty Zapus.

  This is a bug about shortcuts mapped to combinations which include
  each other.

  For example, if we have Ctrl+Shift (for keyboard layout) and Ctrl+Shift+N (to 
open a new terminal), then we are practically unable to use the second 
shortcut; this is what happens:
  Ctrl press (nothing happens)
  Shift press (keyboard layout change)
  N (a simple N appears, since a shortcut has already fired)

  The expected behavior is to fire shortcuts on the release (not on
  press) of the special keys (ctrl,shift,alt, etc) which is also how
  Windows behave. This is a serious problem for bilingual layouts,
  typically using Alt+Shift or Ctrl+Shift for keyboard layout change.

  Apparently, the bug has reappeared after the patch that used to fix
  the problem (208_switch_on_release.diff) has been removed from X.Org
  1.19 packages. There is an updated patch in the upstream ticket
  https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=865 (link to the

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1683383] Re: Keyboard layout change on hotkeys press instead of release and do not work well with shortcuts (reopen)

[Oded Arbel]

I've installed and tested Norbert's PPA and it works great. I have
ALT+SHIFT set as the layout switch shortcut and with the PPA I can now
use Eclipse's ALT+SHIFT+ keyboard shortcuts.

Kudos Norbert!

Sorry it took so long - because the PPA is only for LTS releases, I had
to wait until it was safe for me to update to the 18.04 beta (i.e. no
urgent work scheduled). I hope with the upcoming release there will be
more testers and maybe we can get Ubuntu maintainers to pick up the
patch.

[Norbert]

Dear all!

I have created PPA ( https://launchpad.net/~nrbrtx/+archive/ubuntu/xorg-
hotkeys ) with patched packages for Ubuntu 16.04 LTS (xenial, with HWE)
and Ubuntu 18.04 LTS (bionic).

You can test them by the following commands:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:nrbrtx/xorg-hotkeys
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

Hope this helps.

[Norbert]

@khurshid-alam

I can't determine how many users want to have this bug fixed. So we can
start with the complete working instruction:

1. Set Ctrl+Shift keyboard layout switcher on Ubuntu 18.04 LTS
2. Ensure that Ctrl+Shift+ interference exists
3. Enable "deb-src" sources (via `software-properties-gtk`), then apply the 
patch

cd ~/Downloads
apt-get source xserver-xorg-core
cd xorg-server-1.19.6/
wget 
https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/plain/freedesktop-bug-865.patch?h=xorg-server-bug865
 -O freedesktop-bug-865.patch
patch xkb/xkbActions.c < freedesktop-bug-865.patch

sudo apt-get install devscripts
sudo apt-get build-dep xserver-xorg-core
debuild -uc -us
sudo dpkg -i ../x*.deb

4. Reboot and test again.

  This is a bug about shortcuts mapped to combinations which include
  each other.

  For example, if we have Ctrl+Shift (for keyboard layout) and Ctrl+Shift+N (to 
open a new terminal), then we are practically unable to use the second 
shortcut; this is what happens:

  N (a simple N appears, since a shortcut has already fired)

  The expected behavior is to fire shortcuts on the release (not on

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1683383] Re: Keyboard layout change on hotkeys press instead of release and do not work well with shortcuts (reopen)

[Norbert]

I attached patch from ArchLinux AUR (https://aur.archlinux.org/packages
/xorg-server-bug865/, https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/tree
/freedesktop-bug-865.patch?h=xorg-server-bug865 ). This patch is stable
and reliable. ArchLinux users are happy with it.

It fixes current bug on Ubuntu Bionic Beaver 18.04 LTS.
I have tested it with  keyboard layout switcher on GNOME 
(DESKTOP_SESSION="ubuntu") and MATE desktop (DESKTOP_SESSION="mate").


Please kindly review it and consider applying it before official final release 
of 18.04 LTS.
I'm ready to test proposed packages which (I hope) you would create.
As the result Ubuntu users will be as happy as ArchLinux's users.

[Raycho Raykov]

I patched my Lubuntu 16.04 with the mentioned upward patch few hours ago
and everything starts working perfectly. I also tested Linux Mint 18.3
with Cinnamon and everything works as expected without any patches. The
problem exists in Ubuntu MATE 16.04 too. All these are 64 bit versions.
The patch is created correctly: when I released first button from the
sequence, the sequence is executed. This way when I switching locales
and keep Shift pressed (I'm using Alt+Shift) I can start writing with
capital letter. I hope this information is helpful.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1683383] Re: Keyboard layout change on hotkeys press instead of release and do not work well with shortcuts (reopen)

[Sebastian Bär]

In case you don't need to switch between keyboard layouts, you can get
some shortcuts working again if you use the "Tweaks" tool for Gnome.

  sudo apt install gnome-tweak-tool

Then

1. Open "Tweaks"
2. Select the tab "Keyboard & Mouse"
3. Click "Additional Layout Options"
4. Disable entries in the "Switching to another layout" dialog

In my case this gave me back the "ALT + SHIFT" combinations which are
essential in the Eclipse IDE for refactoring.

Bug description:
  This is a reopen of bug #36812, which has reappeared in Kubuntu 17.04
  Zesty Zapus.

  This is a bug about shortcuts mapped to combinations which include
  each other.

  For example, if we have Ctrl+Shift (for keyboard layout) and Ctrl+Shift+N (to 
open a new terminal), then we are practically unable to use the second 
shortcut; this is what happens:
  Ctrl press (nothing happens)
  Shift press (keyboard layout change)
  N (a simple N appears, since a shortcut has already fired)

  The expected behavior is to fire shortcuts on the release (not on
  press) of the special keys (ctrl,shift,alt, etc) which is also how
  Windows behave. This is a serious problem for bilingual layouts,
  typically using Alt+Shift or Ctrl+Shift for keyboard layout change.

  Apparently, the bug has reappeared after the patch that used to fix
  the problem (208_switch_on_release.diff) has been removed from X.Org
  1.19 packages. There is an updated patch in the upstream ticket
  https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=865 (link to the

[V-ctor]

How to make it works on 17.10?
There is no package xserver-xorg-core-hwe-xxx.
I did this:
1. sudo apt install devscripts
2. apt-get build-dep xorg-server
3. apt source xserver-xorg-core
4. wget https://bugs.freedesktop.org/attachment.cgi?id=129861
5  cd xkb
6. patch < attachment.cgi?id=129861
7. debuild -us -uc

and got:

[A]

My script based on Jacob's one.
https://gist.github.com/zorn-v/df0dccd14af81e017fbe8a4e1523ddf5

It removes all packages installed for build (with prompt).
Patch downdload commented out.

Bolow this line is the cry of the soul

It is IDIOTISM. It's need to recompile WHOLE X.ORG for simple behavior whose 
should be in some config at least.

Many dislikes and curse to upstream mainteiners. AFAIK this bug since
200X. THIS IS SHAME.

You can put your important opinion in the...
Yes, I don't respect you as you don't respect users (and distro mainteiners) of 
your lib.

Title:
  Keyboard layout change on hotkeys press instead of release and do not
  work well with shortcuts (reopen)

Status in X.Org X server:
  In Progress
Status in xorg-server package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  This is a reopen of bug #36812, which has reappeared in Kubuntu 17.04
  Zesty Zapus.

  This is a bug about shortcuts mapped to combinations which include
  each other.

  For example, if we have Ctrl+Shift (for keyboard layout) and Ctrl+Shift+N (to 
open a new terminal), then we are practically unable to use the second 
shortcut; this is what happens:
  Ctrl press (nothing happens)
  Shift press (keyboard layout change)
  N (a simple N appears, since a shortcut has already fired)

  The expected behavior is to fire shortcuts on the release (not on
  press) of the special keys (ctrl,shift,alt, etc) which is also how
  Windows behave. This is a serious problem for bilingual layouts,
  typically using Alt+Shift or Ctrl+Shift for keyboard layout change.

  Apparently, the bug has reappeared after the patch that used to fix
  the problem (208_switch_on_release.diff) has been removed from X.Org
  1.19 packages. There is an updated patch in the upstream ticket
  https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=865 (link to the
  attachment: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/attachment.cgi?id=129861).

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1683383] Re: Keyboard layout change on hotkeys press instead of release and do not work well with shortcuts (reopen)

[Jacob Becker]

Here's my script based on the gist mentioned on comment #21
https://github.com/plastikat/patch-xkb-layout-switch

It tries to be generic. It uses a separate configuration file for each
platform, which means it is extensible. It is still apt-based, though.

Title:
  Keyboard layout change on hotkeys press instead of release and do not
  work well with shortcuts (reopen)

Status in X.Org X server:
  Unknown
Status in xorg-server package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  This is a reopen of bug #36812, which has reappeared in Kubuntu 17.04
  Zesty Zapus.

  This is a bug about shortcuts mapped to combinations which include
  each other.

  For example, if we have Ctrl+Shift (for keyboard layout) and Ctrl+Shift+N (to 
open a new terminal), then we are practically unable to use the second 
shortcut; this is what happens:
  Ctrl press (nothing happens)
  Shift press (keyboard layout change)
  N (a simple N appears, since a shortcut has already fired)

  The expected behavior is to fire shortcuts on the release (not on
  press) of the special keys (ctrl,shift,alt, etc) which is also how
  Windows behave. This is a serious problem for bilingual layouts,
  typically using Alt+Shift or Ctrl+Shift for keyboard layout change.

  Apparently, the bug has reappeared after the patch that used to fix
  the problem (208_switch_on_release.diff) has been removed from X.Org
  1.19 packages. There is an updated patch in the upstream ticket
  https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=865 (link to the

[tlk]

well yeah more than a couple. I actually remember when I got fed up with
this and went looking on the net what can be done and later found out
that Ubuntu would accept the patch - I was on another distro then. just
don't remember when exactly.

I do the 10 fingers typing but even if you don't it's annoying.

[kolya]

That patch that fixes the problem has been applied in Ubuntu for way
more than 'couple of years'

Unfortunately using right keys for modifiers doesn't work well with
people who use 10 finger typing - they are used to press certain keys
with certain fingers - to speed up their typing, and using wrong hand
slows things down and leads to errors. Some modifier-heavy apps - like
Emacs become very inconvenient if used with wrong modifier keys.

[tlk]

Not exactly a bug, it's just how it works by default and that is what the xkb 
specs supposedly say. So this behavior dates way back certainly more that 15 
yrs ))
And the fix was incorporated by Ubuntu only a couple of yrs ago certainly not 
in 2002 )))

The 'workaround' suggested above is what I use btw. And what have used
on other distros.

[Vavooon]

Meanwhile I can suggest a partial workaround for the problem:
You can map layout switching to LEFT Ctrl+Shift and right keys will be 
available for using with shortcuts.

This annoying bug takes my linux user experience 15 years back to 2002.
Is there a way to make Ubuntu great again? Are there any known
workarounds for this bug?

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1683383] Re: Keyboard layout change on hotkeys press instead of release and do not work well with shortcuts (reopen)

[MKorvin]

I have arch linux installed on another PC and Xorg server from
https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/xorg-server-bug865/ works fine for
me. Sources of applied patch are attached, is it possible to get it from
there?

  Keyboard layout change on hotkeys press instead of release and do not

Status in xorg-server package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  This is a reopen of bug #36812, which has reappeared in Kubuntu 17.04
  Zesty Zapus.

  This is a bug about shortcuts mapped to combinations which include
  each other.

  For example, if we have Ctrl+Shift (for keyboard layout) and Ctrl+Shift+N (to 
open a new terminal), then we are practically unable to use the second 
shortcut; this is what happens:
  Ctrl press (nothing happens)
  Shift press (keyboard layout change)
  N (a simple N appears, since a shortcut has already fired)

  The expected behavior is to fire shortcuts on the release (not on
  press) of the special keys (ctrl,shift,alt, etc) which is also how
  Windows behave. This is a serious problem for bilingual layouts,
  typically using Alt+Shift or Ctrl+Shift for keyboard layout change.

  Apparently, the bug has reappeared after the patch that used to fix
  the problem (208_switch_on_release.diff) has been removed from X.Org
  1.19 packages. There is an updated patch in the upstream ticket
  https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=865 (link to the

[tlk]

Thats the problem - the old patch doesn't work for the newer Xorg
server.

AFAIU the upstream won't accept this anyway.
Thus it's the matter of testing the patch and getting it into Ubuntu. AFAIK 
Ubuntu was the only major distro that applied the old patch. Was yet another 
reason to use it.

please apply the old patch. Let the 17.04 work as the 16.10. Screw the
upstream because it could take ages for them to decide

[Lastique]

> And if you had a look at the upstream bug you'd see that the patch
doesn't work.

I can see that someone reported it to not work for one-key combinations
(e.g. Ctrl). I believe, the previous patch that was removed had the same
limitation, and it was "good enough".

We need to see if it works for two-key combinations (e.g. Ctrl+Alt or
Alt+Shift).

> It needs to get upstream first anyway.

It's unlikely to be accepted into XKb for the same reasons as the
previous patch. This ticket is a request to add the patch to Ubuntu
packages because this is a real problem that affects people.

1) It's just one (incomplete) report that it doesn't. I'll try the patch myself 
soon.
2) The previous patch wasn't in upstream either, yet Ubuntu maintainers did 
absolutely right to accept it IMO.
3) AFAIK Xorg people rejected this change outright (that is? after some 
prolonged explanaitons what the actual problem was - shows that they just don't 
have the issue thus don't care too much).
3) Yet people shouldn't be held hostage because the proposed behavior breaks 
the XKB spec - without (? AFAIK) a single confirmed case of it breaking any 
real world X client.
