Package: keyboard-configuration Version: 1.51 Severity: important
There seems to be a problem in propagation of XKBOPTIONS setup from keyboard-configuration to Xorg. My /etc/default/keyboard is (not in sync with debconf since I have slightly complex xkb setup): > # If you change any of the following variables and HAL and X are > # configured to use this file, then the changes will become visible to > # X only if HAL is restarted. In Debian you need to run > # /etc/init.d/hal restart > > # The following variables describe your keyboard and can have the same > # values as the XkbModel, XkbLayout, XkbVariant and XkbOptions options > # in /etc/X11/xorg.conf. > > XKBMODEL="pc105" > XKBLAYOUT="us,cz" > XKBVARIANT=",ucw" > XKBOPTIONS="grp:caps_switch,terminate:ctrl_alt_bksp" > > # If you don't want to use the XKB layout on the console, you can > # specify an alternative keymap. Make sure it will be accessible > # before /usr is mounted. > # KMAP=/etc/console-setup/defkeymap.kmap.gz However, Xorg.log shows: > (II) XINPUT: Adding extended input device "AT Translated Set 2 keyboard" > (type: KEYBOARD) > (**) Option "xkb_rules" "evdev" > (**) Option "xkb_model" "pc105" > (**) Option "xkb_layout" "us,cz" > (**) Option "xkb_variant" ",ucw" > (**) Option "xkb_options" "grp:caps_switch" And sure enough, I cannot use ctrl-alt-bksp in my X session to zap the X server, a rather important functionality. -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (500, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.32-3-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=cs_CZ.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages keyboard-configuration depends on: ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.32 Debian configuration management sy ii xserver-xorg 1:7.5+6 the X.Org X server ii xserver-xorg-core 2:1.7.7-1 Xorg X server - core server keyboard-configuration recommends no packages. keyboard-configuration suggests no packages. -- debconf information: * keyboard-configuration/layout: USA * keyboard-configuration/variant: USA keyboard-configuration/unsupported_options: true keyboard-configuration/optionscode: terminate:ctrl_alt_bksp keyboard-configuration/modelcode: pc105 * keyboard-configuration/unsupported_config_options: false keyboard-configuration/toggle: No toggling * keyboard-configuration/altgr: The default for the keyboard layout keyboard-configuration/unsupported_layout: true keyboard-configuration/layoutcode: us debian-installer/console-setup-udeb/title: * keyboard-configuration/ctrl_alt_bksp: true keyboard-configuration/variantcode: keyboard-configuration/other: keyboard-configuration/unsupported_config_layout: true * keyboard-configuration/compose: No compose key keyboard-configuration/switch: No temporary switch * keyboard-configuration/model: Generic 105-key (Intl) PC -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-boot-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
