[Desktop-packages] [Bug 995715] Re: X defaulting keyboard locale to US at login after upgrading distribution if a Logitech Unifying Receiver is plugged in

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 995715] Re: X defaulting keyboard locale to US at login after upgrading distribution if a Logitech Unifying Receiver is plugged in
This bug was reported in 2012 - and is still present in Kubuntu 14.04. How can we help to fix this? Writing the console in the lightdm.conf is no real fix. Why is it not possible to switch keyboard layouts according to users preferences after the user has entered hi username (or clicked on his user picture?) The keyboard layout should not be tied to a computer (=lightdm.conf), but user specific: There could be a computer that is used by many different users, all having their own layout (semi-public computer, shared in a library or student's home with different people having their own account, sharing the same keyboard...) So why not let lightdm (who IMHO is in charge of setting the layout then) decide after selecting the user which layout should be chosen? It could be done like in Unity-greeter: the greeter looks up the user desktop picture and displays it in the moment the user is selected. This must be cached in a central place anyway because the user partition could be encrypted. But that is solved in unity-greeter as well. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-input-evdev in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/995715 Title: X defaulting keyboard locale to US at login after upgrading distribution if a Logitech Unifying Receiver is plugged in Status in “xserver-xorg-input-evdev” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: After upgrading Kubuntu Oneiric to Precise, X locale is defaulted to en_US regardless of system-wide and user-specific options.
