You should get developers' feedback about this approach first. If they are not willing to merge the patch that works via xorg.conf, you will only waste your time. >From the other hand side, you will probably waste your time anyway. Developers talk about the "standard", and explicitely suggest sending patches to standard instead of patching xorg (read previous comments). And when such patch for the standard gets attached to this bug report, what happens? Nothing. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to the bug report. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/36812 Title: Keyboard layout change on hotkeys press instead of release and do not work well with shortcuts To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gnome-control-center/+bug/36812/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
