Hello, I experience this bug. After plugging in the extern USB keyboard into my laptop, the external keyboard uses the qwerty (non-default for me) layout. But, the laptop's own (ps/2?) keyboard remains with the original keyboard layout that I had as my default at the time I plugged the external keyboard in.
I use the 'Keyboard Indicator 2.24.1' applet for switching between two layouts. Note that after plugging in the external usb keyboard, the Keyboard Indicator applet: is no longer able to switch between different layouts; and it indicates with it's mouse-hover popup info that I am now using the qwerty layout. However, my internal laptop is still using my original (Dvorak). Neither the internal or external keyboard can have their layouts changed/alternated using the applet the way I could before plugging in the external. Gnome Version: 2.24.1 Distro: Ubuntu 8.10 (via upgrade) Attached is the same 'lspci -vvnn' output. Note that restarting X by logging out or Ctrl+Alt+Backspace will put everything back in order again, provided I do not plug keyboard in *after* my X Gnome session has started. Please let me know how I can help with any more debugging information, outputs, etc. ** Attachment added: "lspci_-vvnn.output" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/21278279/lspci_-vvnn.output -- Keyboard layout reset after attaching USB keyboard https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/295990 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
