My 2 cents comment : I have Fr and En(USA) environment (Keyboard) On 1st login from fresh start : OK When I close the session and log in again, The applet show Fr, but the keyboard is US.
Just clicking on the applet and switching to En then to Fr get things OK. My 2 cents hint : This seems to be a time-race problem : when the applet starts up, Kbd is FR, but some init put it back discretly in En..... OR : The applet uses the latest settings but they are Not applied to the Kbd map -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to libgnomekbd in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/749934 Title: incorrect keymap name in indicator-applet Status in “libgnomekbd” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Binary package hint: gnome-control-center My desktop currently is configured with the following keyboard maps (according to gconf names): [fi classic,se rus] In the keyboard map applet that appears in application-indicator, the first one is correctly identified as Fin. However, the second one is incorrectly identified as Swe, even though this is a Russian keyboard map variant (with the usual Cyrillic letters). The se prefix in the gconf key refers to the fact that punctuation marks are designed to match the locations on a Swedish keyboard map, to ease a phonetic transition between a normal Swedish map using Latin letters with Scandinavian vowels and a Russian phonetic map using Cyrillic letters. This is mainly usefull for Russian speakers living in Finland or Sweden, who constantly need to switch between two alphabets. It therefore should be identified as Rus in the 3-letter identifier that appears besides the applet's icon in the notification area or in indicator-application.
