[Bug 1010866] Re: No Keyboard Layout option in lock screen
Also in 18.04 - after upgrade from 16.04. At some point the UI keyboard switcher is not available, so I stuck with locked screen. My input is switched from US to RU, so no way to pick the right symbols. An I tried to use a different shortcut - such as Ctrl-Space - it didn't work. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-screensaver in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1010866 Title: No Keyboard Layout option in lock screen To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-screensaver/+bug/1010866/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

This problem get harder in my case, with English and Persian layouts. If I was using Persian layout and left my computer, I would lose all of my unsaved work; because there's no way to enter English letters through Persian layout. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-screensaver in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1010866 Title: No Keyboard Layout option in lock screen To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-screensaver/+bug/1010866/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

But a workaround here is to assign some keys for changing keyboard layout. Go to System Settings Keyboard Layout Options (button on the bottom right) Under key(s) to change layout select an option, so you will be able to swith layouts in lock screen via keyboard. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-screensaver in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1010866 Title: No Keyboard Layout option in lock screen To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-screensaver/+bug/1010866/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

** Description changed: - I have QWERTY as my default keyboard layout. + I have QWERTY as my default keyboard layout and I am using Ubuntu 12.04 (64 bit) with Gnome Shell. Now, 1. I switched it to Dvorak and made Dvorak default and the QWERTY secondary. 2. Now I start learning Dvorak 3. Now I go away from computer for tea 4. When I come back the computer is locked due to auto lock setting 5. Now I can not type password using QWERTY because default layout set to Dvorak as said in #1 6. I am locked out since yet I have not learned the Dvorak layout So it will be great to provide keyboard layout button to change the layout using mouse on the lock screen as that of the login screen.
