I just hit this bug too and can confirm it for 17.10 and 18.04. However, there is an easy workaround: Make sure Neo2 is the only layout in your XKB keymap. The easiest way would be to have just one layout. Another solution for me is to have exactly 4 layouts and Neo2 is the 4th. Checking with "xkbcomp $DISPLAY output.xkb" both ways lead to the same keymap. I will attach a working and non working xkbcomp output. Maybe someone with more experience can diff these and find the root cause. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to xkeyboard-config in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/879838 Title: Keyboard Layout "Germany Neo 2": Mod4 does not work if used as secondary keyboard layout Status in xkeyboard-config package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: If Neo 2 is used as secondary keyboard layout, Layer 4 and 6 (that is, Mod4) don't work.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 879838] Re: Keyboard Layout Germany Neo 2: Mod4 does not work if used as secondary keyboard layout
This bug annoys me, too, and I've seen it in Oneiric (11.10) and Precise (12.04). I guess it is present in Quantal and Raring, too. I have configured “German Neo 2” and “German eliminate dead keys” layouts, and whatever I choose as the secondary layout does not work correctly. Only the primary layout works as expected. If Neo is the secondary layout, both Mod4 keys are completely ignored, so instead of layer 4 and 6 I get layer 1 and 3, respectively. (See http ://neo-layout.org/ for details.) If “Qwertz” is the secondary layout, I can't type “”, “” and “|”, because the left one of the two Neo-Mod4-keys is dead. This makes working on the command line rather impossible. My workaround is to select Neo as the primary layout, and if someone else (unfamiliar with Neo) needs to type on my keyboard, I have to change the primary layout. ** Tags added: quantal raring ** Tags added: running-unity -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to xkeyboard-config in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/879838 Title: Keyboard Layout Germany Neo 2: Mod4 does not work if used as secondary keyboard layout Status in “xkeyboard-config” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: If Neo 2 is used as secondary keyboard layout, Layer 4 and 6 (that is, Mod4) don't work.
