It's interesting that you are hitting the bug without autologin. My theory so far has been that GDM does something to make the bug go away, but apparently that does not happen in your case. Maybe that's because we're using different versions? I'm running Lucid Lynx on my computer with GDM version 2.30.0-0ubuntu5, what about you?
I don't think the distinction between US and UK QWERTY is particularly important. Where I mentioned standard US QWERTY, I was guessing that this would be the fallback / hard-coded keymap that erroneously gets used when triggering hotkeys. I think I'll leave figuring out a solution for people who know the inner workings of the software in question, but I did figure out a work-around that at least hides the problem in my case: I set my system keyboard layout to "Estonia Dvorak" and user's layout to "Estonia Dvorak" and "Estonia US keyboard with Estonian letters". Whereas before both system and user's layouts were like the current user's layout, now they differ between themselves and the bug does not manifest. I hope this helps. -- Keyboard shortcuts don't "stick" with multiple keymappings https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/310000 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
