Title: Can't change layout using Unity indicator nor Gnome Control Center --12.10 upgrade Status in Unity: Invalid Status in “gnome-control-center” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Problem: I can't use the keyboard mapping recently chosen. Details: Selecting anything other than the US International with dead keys layout from the Unity applet doesn't invoke a layout change. Going to gnome-keyboard-properties and high lighting and moving desired layout to top don't help. gnome-control-center version: Version: 1:3.4.1-0ubuntu1 Reproducible? 100% on my system Steps to Reproduce: 1.log in and change keyboard layout from US International with dead keys to "anything else" via the Unity applet 2. type Actual results: US International with dead keys layout continues to be in effect. The following two commands results don't change regardless of what Keyboard Layout or "applet" selection. cat /etc/default/keyboard XKBMODEL="pc104" XKBLAYOUT="us" XKBVARIANT="intl" XKBOPTIONS="terminate:ctrl_alt_bksp" cat ~/.dmrc [Desktop] Language=en_US.utf8 Layout=us mac Langlist=en_US:en LCMess=en_US.UTF-8 Session=ubuntu gconftool-2 -R /desktop/gnome/peripherals/keyboard/kbd model = macintosh_hhk layouts = [us intl,us alt-intl,us altgr-intl,us colemak] options = [terminate terminate:ctrl_alt_bksp,keypad keypad:atm,grp grp:shift_caps_toggle] Expected results: "Anything else" layout is nowhere to be seen, US International with dead keys remains activated. Workaround -seems to be to choose the layout from lightdm. Comments I don't seem to have gnome-keyboard-properties since running that from terminal doesn't produce the Keyboard Layout pane. Is gnome-keyboard-properties part of Precise? Control Center shouldn't be overridden by system settings. Rather, it should allow the user to change the system defaults or change it on behalf of the user.
