I agree - my experience described above is identical to that described in bug #23762, and fixing xorg.conf as described there solves the problem for me. How about we redefine these two bugs as something like the following:
Gnome should reset the xkblayout at login When the xkblayout (as stored in /etc/X11/xorg.conf, and as reported by `xkbcomp`) disagrees with the layout specified by gnome-keyboard- properties, the only way to change the keyboard layout from that specified in /etc/X11/xorg.conf is to add or remove a keyboard layout. This seems to be because gnome-keyboard-properties can't switch layouts unless one of its layouts is currently specified. The suggested fix is therefore to set the xkblayout to the default at the start of every session, rather than assuming that xkblayout will do it. -- Secondary keyboard layouts invalid after Reboot https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/234368 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
