Hi again! I tried to catch the little beast, so I made a script to monitor xkb settings and scream if they change. Well, since I added this script to my startup, the bug never showed - in other words, the panel plugin works like a charm now. Perhaps the problem was caused by some other programs (such as X or xfce) and disappeared with an update but just in case it didn't, here is the xkb watchdog script you can use to try to hunt the cunning little buxen down. It barks at every system startup as the panel plugin loads its settings for the first time, which is okay but if you hear from it at any other time, it's the bug!
Enjoy. ** Attachment added: "A trusty xkb settings watchdog." https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xfce4-xkb-plugin/+bug/944468/+attachment/3104454/+files/xkbdog -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/944468 Title: keyboard layouts plugin forgets all settings at random times To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/xkb/+bug/944468/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
