Sorry if I filed it under the wrong package. I was following the recommendations on this page for hardware problems: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs which led me to here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/FindRightPackage#Hardware_Malfunctions which says: "If a piece of hardware is malfunctioning, typically the problem package is the kernel."
I don't know which package controls xprop or xkb, but this page from 2012, which "is potentially out of date as of Intrepid due to input-hotplug": https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingKeyboardDetection says: "Keyboard related bugs should initially be filed against xorg, as bugbot will switch it to the correct package (ex. xserver-xorg-input-evdev). If the bug turns out to be a kernel bug or a bug in another package, bug triagers can assign the bug additionally to that package and mark the xserver-xorg-input-evdev task as invalid." Would you like me to change it to xorg, or should I let someone more knowledgeable than me handle it? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1902001 Title: USB keyboard layout incorrect after unplugging and replugging Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Description: Ubuntu 20.04.1 LTS Release: 20.04 Kernel version: 5.4.0-52-generic (but problem began with 5.4.0-51-generic) Keyboard: Bus 001 Device 018: ID 056e:1063 Elecom Co., Ltd ELECOM TK-FCP097 Expected behaviour: USB keyboard layout remains the same when unplugging and replugging in same keyboard (This was the behaviour on 5.4.0-48-generic and earlier.) What happened instead: USB keyboard layout changes from: < _XKB_RULES_NAMES(STRING) = "evdev", "pc105", "us,jp,us,us", ",,intl,", "grp_led:scroll" to: > _XKB_RULES_NAMES(STRING) = "evdev", "pc105", "us,us", ",intl", "grp:alt_shift_toggle,grp_led:scroll" (output of xprop -root | grep XKB ) The keyboard layout is reset to the correct layout after logging out and back in (or after suspend/resume); however, unplugging and replugging the keyboard in causes the same unexpected behaviour. Same problem occurs with a different USB keyboard: Bus 001 Device 019: ID 0d62:8070 Darfon Electronics Corp.
