that was an issue for me too. I applied the layout settings systemwide (Preferences -> Keyboard -> Layouts -> delete USA layout and press button "Apply system wide") and it now works: even in gdm the default keyboard is Polish, not USA.
my /etc/default/console-setup looks as follows: $ grep X /etc/default/console-setup # values as the XkbModel, XkbLayout, XkbVariant and XkbOptions options # in /etc/X11/xorg.conf. XKBMODEL="pc105" XKBLAYOUT="pl,ua" XKBVARIANT=",unicode" XKBOPTIONS="lv3:ralt_switch,grp:lwin_toggle,grp_led:num,nbsp:level3n,terminate:ctrl_alt_bksp" and settings in GNOME: $ gconftool-2 --get /desktop/gnome/peripherals/keyboard/kbd/layouts [pl,ua unicode] -- wrong keyboard layout after upgrade with autologin https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/401497 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gdm in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
