This patch is stable and reliable. ArchLinux users are happy with it. It fixes current bug on Ubuntu Bionic Beaver 18.04 LTS. I have tested it with keyboard layout switcher on GNOME (DESKTOP_SESSION="ubuntu") and MATE desktop (DESKTOP_SESSION="mate"). Please kindly review it and consider applying it before official final release of 18.04 LTS. I'm ready to test proposed packages which (I hope) you would create.

I've installed and tested Norbert's PPA and it works great. I have ALT+SHIFT set as the layout switch shortcut and with the PPA I can now use Eclipse's ALT+SHIFT+ keyboard shortcuts. Kudos Norbert! Sorry it took so long - because the PPA is only for LTS releases, I had to wait until it was safe for me to update to the 18.04 beta (i.e. no urgent work scheduled).

In case you don't need to switch between keyboard layouts, you can get some shortcuts working again if you use the "Tweaks" tool for Gnome. sudo apt install gnome-tweak-tool Then 1. Open "Tweaks" 2. Select the tab "Keyboard & Mouse" 3. Click "Additional Layout Options" 4. Disable entries in the "Switching to another layout" dialog In my case this gave me back the "ALT + SHIFT" combinations which are essential in the Eclipse IDE for refactoring. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to xorg-server in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1683383 Title: Keyboard layout change on hotkeys press instead of release and do not work well with shortcuts (reopen) Status in X.Org X server: Confirmed Status in xorg-server package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: This is a reopen of bug #36812, which has reappeared in Kubuntu 17.04 Zesty Zapus.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1683383] Re: Keyboard layout change on hotkeys press instead of release and do not work well with shortcuts (reopen)

Not exactly a bug, it's just how it works by default and that is what the xkb specs supposedly say. So this behavior dates way back certainly more that 15 yrs )) And the fix was incorporated by Ubuntu only a couple of yrs ago certainly not in 2002 ))) The 'workaround' suggested above is what I use btw.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1683383] Re: Keyboard layout change on hotkeys press instead of release and do not work well with shortcuts (reopen)
That patch that fixes the problem has been applied in Ubuntu for way more than 'couple of years' Unfortunately using right keys for modifiers doesn't work well with people who use 10 finger typing - they are used to press certain keys with certain fingers - to speed up their typing, and using wrong hand slows things down and leads to errors. Some modifier-heavy apps - like Emacs become very inconvenient if used with wrong modifier keys. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to xorg-server in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1683383 Title: Keyboard layout change on hotkeys press instead of release and do not work well with shortcuts (reopen) Status in xorg-server package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: This is a reopen of bug #36812, which has reappeared in Kubuntu 17.04 Zesty Zapus.

well yeah more than a couple. I actually remember when I got fed up with this and went looking on the net what can be done and later found out that Ubuntu would accept the patch - I was on another distro then. just don't remember when exactly.
