Seriously, I mean this. Double pronged keyboard users like Cyrillic will tell you they switch between US and their local layout with Shift-Alt. Anyone "on the street" will, as if it were a hardware feature of the keyboard. Why would Linux answer be "whatever your setting is : Gnome ... KDE ... Xfce ...", change the setting every time for every user you define"? (fortunately, I myself do that with scripts). Deciding the mode (US or local) in which the keyboard starts is enough of a question already. I went for US because some programs requiring it, like game movement keys, make a misuse invisible, whereas almost every Cyrillic usage has visual feedback of the typing. I found that defining a Cyrillic keyboard is not exactly the easy Ubuntu setup for everyone. -- A GNOME login without keypress dosn't set GNOME keyboard settings https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/196277 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
