[Bug 63915] Re: [Edgy Beta] Japan keyboard layout is actually U.S. English
Your comment is not very clear. Do you mean that U.S. English is preselected in the keyboard layout selector, or that when you select Japan in the keyboard layout selector you get U.S. English? In either case, please attach /var/log/syslog from the live session to this bug. ** Changed in: console-setup (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed = Needs Info -- [Edgy Beta] Japan keyboard layout is actually U.S. English https://launchpad.net/bugs/63915 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 63915] Re: [Edgy Beta] Japan keyboard layout is actually U.S. English
I'm sorry for my unclear comment. I mean that when I select Japan in the keyboard layout selector I get U.S. English. I'm attaing ubiquity log in /var/log/syslog. I tryed the command setxkbmap -model jp106 -layout 'jp(latin),jp' -variant , -option grp:alt_shift_toggle on a gnome terminal, and I get good Japanese keyboard layout. Thanks in advance for your help. ** Attachment added: ubiquity log in /var/log/syslog from the live session http://librarian.launchpad.net/4916099/ubiquity.log -- [Edgy Beta] Japan keyboard layout is actually U.S. English https://launchpad.net/bugs/63915 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Thank you for your effort. Unfortunately, I faced installer clashed dialog when I selected Japan keyboard layout on ubiquity.

I think this should fix it, but please do let me know if it doesn't: console-setup (1.7ubuntu18) edgy; urgency=low * Change the default font to VGA where supported; Terminus does not seem to have widespread aesthetic appeal. * Use jp(latin),jp rather than us,jp by default for Japanese, and set the model to jp106 (closes: Malone #63915). * Build-depend on keymapper (= 0.5.3-7) for improved Alt-handling logic. -- Colin Watson [EMAIL PROTECTED] Thu, 12 Oct 2006 02:42:15 +0100 ** Changed in: console-setup (Ubuntu) Assignee: (unassigned) = Colin Watson Status: Confirmed = Fix Released -- [Edgy Beta] Japan keyboard layout is actually U.S. English https://launchpad.net/bugs/63915 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Oops, the above wikipedia page includes less common Japanese keyboard layout.

Hmm, OK. Is something like XkbLayout jp,jp XkbVariant latin, a common setup for you? The jp(latin) variant seems to match the IBM link you gave. ** Changed in: console-setup (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided = Medium Status: Unconfirmed = Confirmed -- [Edgy Beta] Japan keyboard layout is actually U.S. English https://launchpad.net/bugs/63915 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 63915] Re: [Edgy Beta] Japan keyboard layout is actually U.S. English
All non-Latin keyboard layouts use a third-level shift in order to avoid the situation where you can't type your username at the login screen because your keymap doesn't have the right characters. Press and release Alt+Shift to switch between the US and the Japanese layout. ** Changed in: ubiquity (Ubuntu) Sourcepackagename: ubiquity = console-setup Status: Unconfirmed = Rejected -- [Edgy Beta] Japan keyboard layout is actually U.S. English https://launchpad.net/bugs/63915 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 63915] Re: [Edgy Beta] Japan keyboard layout is actually U.S. English
Thank you for your reply. I don't mean to input Japanese characters(like 'あ') printed on Japanese keyboard, but to input some latin characters with Japanese keyboard. Japanese keyboard has different layout from us one: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Keyboard_layout#Japanese For example, '@' locates on the right side of 'P' on Japanese keyboard, but '[' locates at the same place on US keyboard. I selected Germany in ubiquity step 3, type 'z' and 'y' appeared. This seems to be correct. Germany keyboard has 'y' on the left of 'x'. But I switched to Japan, type '@' and '[' occured. This causes that they can't type some latin caracters with Japanese keyboard on live session. For instance, they can't type '_'(under score) for their hostname. -- [Edgy Beta] Japan keyboard layout is actually U.S. English https://launchpad.net/bugs/63915 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
