Public bug reported:
I am using Krfb as server for enabling remote access to this Ubuntu12.04
64bit machine.
The problem is that sometimes remote sessions changes the keybord layout
completely on this remote machine.
The changes keeps persistent, also when all remote connections are
closed and Krfb is quitted.
This is a violation of what Krfb should be allowed to do.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Steps to reproduce:
1. Enable krfb access over Menu -> Settings- > acces to workspace ->
Security -> uninvited connections (setting a phassphrase there)
2.Use a scond computer and start the remote client programm krdc(I have
used SLE Desktop 11 SP2 64bit with krdc4.3.5)
3. Connect (over LAN 198.127.1.x) to the Ubuntu 12.04 krfb server
machine and give your phasprase.
4.Confirm the incomming connection on the Ubuntu12.04 krfb server
machine
5.Operate from the client(SLED11SP2) on the server(Ubuntu12.04): Start
virtualbox4.1.18(ppa of Felix Greyer)-> Start a Ubuntu12.10Quantal64bit
vm on the server -> operate from remote client(SLED11SP2) in the
vm(Ubuntu12.10):terminal,phasprases,synaptic,etc.)
6.After a while you will see that the keyborad layout works not
normal(very cryptic, wrong key set, big changes to litte and invers).
7. This is not fully reproducible in time, so you will need to operate a
while arround.
I have hit this on two operating attemts two times.
