Public bug reported:
I use a custom script for configuring my keyboard layout on login in order to
have a portable solution on all machines and desktop systems (kde, gnome, ...):
.xprofile
----------------------------------------------------------------------
...
setxkbmap -layout de -model pc105 -variant "nodeadkeys" -option
"ctrl:nocaps,compose:rwin,alt_win:menu"
xkbset m || true
xmodmap -e "keysym Menu = Pointer_Button2" || true
...
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Essentially, CapsLock is modified to be an additional control key and
the right menu key is my middle mouse button (as my laptop lacks this
button).
I call .xprofile from my .profile if $DISPLAY is set sufficiently.
Problem is, that after "resume from ram" the keyboard is restored to default
settings *sometimes*.
I expect the xkb state of the X server to be preserved across suspend / resume
cycles.
I have the strong suspicion that the bug is triggered by delayed USB
recognition in my docking station. I could create a similar reset by
unplugging my external keyboard and replugging it. Is there a way to prevent
this magic from happening?
$ lsb_release -rd
