In my case I can now reproduce it: Just unplug the receiver from the USB jack and plug it in again. This makes it impoosible to use my own layout, UNLESS I add another one, doesn't matter which one, THEN select my own one. Then I can delete the one I just added.
So it seems like adding a new layout resets the whole thing, kind of. In my case, since I only need ONE layout, the problem could be solved, somewhat ugly, by making sure that the ”default” layout is my own, but I don't know how to do that yet. What I mean is, when I type ”xprop -root | grep XKB” in a virtual console, the response is: _XKB_RULES_NAMES_BACKUP(STRING) = "evdev", "pc105", "se", "", "" _XKB_RULES_NAMES(STRING) = "evdev", "pc105", "se", "johnny", "grp:alts_toggle,lv3:ralt_switch,compose:caps,altwin:left_meta_win" I wouold prefer the following response, I guess: _XKB_RULES_NAMES_BACKUP(STRING) = "evdev", "pc105", "se", "johnny", "grp:alts_toggle,lv3:ralt_switch,compose:caps,altwin:left_meta_win" _XKB_RULES_NAMES(STRING) = "evdev", "pc105", "se", "johnny", "grp:alts_toggle,lv3:ralt_switch,compose:caps,altwin:left_meta_win" But I have no idea where to change _XKB_RULES_NAMES_BACKUP(STRING). And if you use several layouts, this ugly fix wouldn't work anyway, would it? Just a thought anyway. The best thing would be to make sure the connection between the OS and the keyboard was never lost. -- Ubuntu "forgets” my keyboard layout sometimes https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/303769 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
