I read up a bit in these threads (where Martin Pitt also contributes a lot)
"always overrides keyboard layout variants" https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=572765 "Try harder to use the keyboard layout passed by gdm" https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=585290 I think the one thing that is overlooked, is that some users never see the gdm selector. To not require a password at login (or login automatically) is an option in the Lucid installation, so I think this is not an uncommon situation. The problem also occurs when there is no .dmrc file. These users will not be able to change their default keyboard layout, at least that will be their experience. Therefore I think this bug should be reopened, but I'm quite new to launchpad so I'm not sure whether it is appropriate for me to do that. ** Bug watch added: GNOME Bug Tracker #572765 https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=572765 ** Bug watch added: GNOME Bug Tracker #585290 https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=585290 -- keyboard layout needs to be reset after each login https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/488048 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
