On a clean Saucy install (Russian layout selected during setup) with the attente PPA, I have the same behaviour as Valery Kozlov described in comment #122. No matter if the switch hotkeys are enabled or disabled in the GUI, I can still switch layouts with ALT+SHIFT.
Strangely, this layout configuration comes from "keyboard-configuration" package. This is the setxkbmap output on a clean system: ~$ setxkbmap -print -verbose Trying to build keymap using the following components: keycodes: evdev+aliases(qwerty) types: complete compat: complete+ledscroll(group_lock) symbols: pc+ru+us:2+inet(evdev)+group(alt_shift_toggle) geometry: pc(pc105) xkb_keymap { xkb_keycodes { include "evdev+aliases(qwerty)" }; xkb_types { include "complete" }; xkb_compat { include "complete+ledscroll(group_lock)" }; xkb_symbols { include "pc+ru+us:2+inet(evdev)+group(alt_shift_toggle)"}; xkb_geometry { include "pc(pc105)" }; }; Running 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure keyboard-configuration' affects the setxkbmap output later, so the console keyboard config clearly makes its way into X (conflicting with the ibus configuration). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-control-center in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1218322 Title: Can't set keyboard layout change to alt+shift, ctrl+shift, etc. To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/1218322/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
