Public bug reported: I boot with the current Ubuntu MATE 18.04 daily live CD. I select Greek on syslinux, "Try Ubuntu before installing", and I start the Ubiquity installer.
At the step where I'm supposed to type my full name, for example "Διαχειριστής" (administrator), I can't switch my keyboard layout to Greek. Neither Alt+Shift nor the panel applet allow me to switch. Note that there are 2 panel applets, MATE's and fcitx's, and both have entries for Greek and English, but when I click on Greek, nothing happens. If I switch to any other application, like e.g. mate-terminal, I can properly switch to Greek. But, if I go back to Ubiquity, I automatically get switched back to English. If I exit fcitx from the panel, then everything works fine in Ubiquity as well. If I rerun fcitx, the problem starts again, so it's completely reproducible. Btw, is fcitx supposed to be running in the Greek locale? Or is this an additional issue with im-config? And is it normal to have 2 applets for keyboard layout selection?! ** Affects: fcitx (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to fcitx in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1739732 Title: Can't switch to Greek in Ubiquity when fcitx is running To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/fcitx/+bug/1739732/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
