In my case, what helped was to remove package `numlockx` with `sudo apt- get purge numlockx`.
This package `numlockx` was integrated into Xubuntu's startup with version 18.04 (see https://wiki.xubuntu.org/releases/18.04/release- notes#numlock). It always turns on Num Lock on startup, which is related to the Neo keyboard layout behaving weirdly as others mentioned above. With that I can use 2 keyboard layouts. I hope this helps others. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to xkeyboard-config in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1783987 Title: German Neo2 Problem with Xubuntu 18.04 (try out mode) Status in xkeyboard-config: Unknown Status in xkeyboard-config package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: When trying Xubuntu 18.04 Bionic Beaver from a USB Stick, I am offered the Neo2 Keyboard Layout, but it does not work. What I get is apparently Neo2 Mod4, but not Mod 1, as it should be. I wonder if Neo2 does work if I install 18.04 properly?
