Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: gnome-settings-daemon
Binary package hint: gnome-settings-daemon
Ubuntu 11.04 (natty)
Kernel 2.6.38-8-generic (#42-Ubuntu SMP Mon Apr 11 03:31:50 UTC 2011)
Gnome 2.32.1 (Ubuntu 2011-04-14)
gnome-settings-daemon 2.32.1-0ubuntu13.1
Description: the keyboard layout settings, when changed to new defaults in a
session, is not remembered across reboots. Upon reboot, it will revert back to
the original defaults as if it had not registered/saved the changes in settings.
Originally, my purpose was to suppress the indicator by removing the additional
keyboard layout that was added at installation. I really use only one layout:
fr_CH and therefore I don't need this keyboard switch indicator in the tray.
Behavior is normal when I suppress the unused keyboard by removing it using the
indicator or control center: upon removing the unused keyboard, the indicator
disappears from the tray and the layout is fr_CH fine. But when I reboot, these
settings are not remembered, and I have to do this all over again in order for
this indicator not to show up in the tray.
Notes:
- this bug appeared in Maverick
- other methods described for disabling the indicator (such as creating a
disable key in gconf /desktop/gnome/peripherals/keyboard/general/ ) do not work
or cure the problem.
