Alberto, the original functionality of this settings in 12.04 is:
- user sets up two keyboard layouts, eg. "English (US)" and some local layout
- user choose which LED (or even LEDs) to use (see attached to bug screenshot)
- from now on while the first layout is selected ("English (US)" from
example), the LED if off; while the second layout is selected (some local from
example) - the LED is ON
The typical usage (for me) is to set Caps Lock as layout switch key
(original Caps Lock function in this case will be automatically remapped
to Shift+Caps Lock) and set Caps Lock LED as layout Indicator (with the
setting from screenshot). (Also the same approach for Scroll Lock, but
this key/LED is much less common for notebooks.)
