[17:46] seb128: ev, will be fixed the day we move to !x11 I guess [17:46] ev: x11's entire design is a limitation [17:46] seb128: right [17:46] seb128: well in that case the limitation is coming from x11 [17:47] ev: right [17:47] seb128: I'm not sure what's the best way forward now for that bug though [17:47] seb128: is that wanted that picking english gets you all of existant english layout variants as configured? [17:48] seb128: could we just pick one and assume users who want other ones can add them using the control center? [17:48] fishor_ joined the chat room. [17:49] ev: seb128: mpt suggested picking the top X layouts for that language [17:49] ev: we'd have to build that data into ubiquity/casper [17:49] ev: problem is, I'm not sure where we get that data [17:49] ev: because, alas, we don't measure these things yet [17:49] cjwatson: shouldn't we undo all the work that ubiquity does if you go through to the live session? [17:49] cjwatson: it should be as if you never went through ubiquity-m [17:49] cjwatson: *ubiquity-dm [17:50] ev: bug 810003 for consistency between ubiquity and casper on this [17:50] ubottu: Launchpad bug 810003 in casper (Ubuntu) "breaking into just the live CD, skipping ubiquity, should add keyboard layouts relevant to the language selection" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/810003 [17:50] cjwatson: you could pick the top one layout for that language, that being the information that's already built into console-setup [17:51] cjwatson: for the time being [17:51] ev: hmm [17:52] cjwatson: if we can't do the other thing without breaking stuff [17:52] fishor joined the chat room. [17:53] seb128: ev, cjwatson: I reassign bug #800561 to ubiquity, is that ok with you? there is not a lot we can do from the ui side with the x11 limitation [17:53] ubottu: Launchpad bug 800561 in ubiquity (Ubuntu Oneiric) "No way to add other keymap than english on Live CD" [High,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/800561 [17:53] seb128: it's also not really practical to have an indicator keymap list going over the screen
