In my case(Maverick 10.10, latest updates) I have three layouts(en, ru, uk) and sometimes(once per hour or two) keyboard indicator starts cycling between layouts very fast. It makes impossible to enter any text, so I'd mark this as high importance bug. The gnome-settings-daemon eats a lot of memory(from 100 to 800 Megs from my observation) and use CPU heavily (up to 100% on one processor). Solution is to kill it and restart. I'll try to disable "Separate layout for each window" option as suggested above and check if it helps. -- 100 percent cpu usage and keyboard layouts switching automatically https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/629444 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
