Hi, I'm using the german version of the Apple USB keyboard (aluminium) and had the same problem with the swapped to keys. To solve the problem once and forever, i made a small kernel patch which disables the ISO layout completely. The patch adds a new option (iso_layout) in the driver "hid- apple.ko" (Just like the fnmode option). The default value is "ISO layout enabled" (Just like before). When you set the option to zero the ISO layout gets disabled and the swapped keys are disappearing (At least for my keyboard).
The patch is for kernel version 2.6.30, but should work with every other kernel version. ** Attachment added: "Patch to add module option for enabling/disabling ISO layout an Apple USB keyboard" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/27940746/hid-apple_iso_layout.patch -- Apple USB ISO keyboard has incorrectly swapped keys https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/214786 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
