** Summary changed:

- keyboard layout switching did not work
+ Keyboard layout switching bug

** Description changed:

- In gnome-keyboard-properties I've added two layouts: USA and Russian 
(Windows).
- In layout settings I've checked Layout switching->Both shift keys and Use 
keyboard LED... -> CapsLock LED shows alternative layout.
- When I've setted this all worked properly, but after reboot I've only USA 
layout working. Both shift pressing don't work.
- Although when keyboard switching working ScrollLock LED indication didn't 
work. 
- Ubuntu 8.04. x86_64. Russian Localization.
+ Build: 1.0.1 20081103
+ Environment: Dell Mini 9
+ 
+ When trying to switch keyboard layouts after the initial setup and boot
+ it is unclear the rules by which the keyboard preferences play. In this
+ case a Spanish keyboard is being used and was set as a US layout in
+ setup and when tried to change nothing would happen. Restart does not
+ help, however intermittently the language you select will be set as the
+ default (reasons undetermined). The only way to consistently change the
+ language correctly is the set a new layout and delete the other keyboard
+ profiles leaving only the desired language/layout. It seems like this
+ should not have to be done as the system will let you store multiple
+ keyboard profiles.
