Dear Ubuntu developers! I have just upgraded my machines from 12.04 to 14.04.
After upgrades I discovered that there are some issues with keyboard layout switching. I have two keyboard layouts - English and Russian. I prefer to install GNOME FlashBack session into normal Ubuntu (Unity) flavor. I tried to set my favourite keyboard layout switching shortcut <Alt+Shift>, but it does not switch keyboard layouts. I tried both GNOME FlashBack with Metacity and Compiz sessions. My shortcut does not switch layouts. Even on clean minimal install. Of course it works on Unity, but I use it very seldom on one netbook. Previously I suggested to add test-suite for GNOME FlashBack sessions with no positive results (see bug 1604466 <https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1604466>). I reported new bug 1687466 <https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1687466>. I can't set <Ctrl+Shift> because of interference with other <Ctrl+Shift+key> shortcuts (see bug 1245473 <https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1245473>). As temporary solution I set <Super+Shift>, but it is unusual. My questions are: 1. Is it possible to use <Alt+Shift> as keyboard layout switcher in GNOME FlashBack sessions? 2. Do you plan to fix <Ctrl+Shift+key> interference? 3. Why we have both gnome-control-center and unity-control-center on simple system with GNOME FlashBack? 4. What is the future of unity-control-center? With best regards, Norbert.
