[Bug 214984] Re: keyboard layout broken if restart without usb keyboard
The bug is closed, but for future reference: It sound like the external keyboard turned and left Num Lock on, which on a laptop keyboard results in the right side of the keyboard to give numbers etc. Not all laptop keyboards have these marked, which may cause difficulties in noticing this. I checked and J -> 1 is one of these mappings. To fix this simply turn off Num Lock. -- keyboard layout broken if restart without usb keyboard https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/214984 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Since the hardware is no longer available for doing troubleshooting with, we'll have to close the bug for now. However please feel free to reopen if you or anyone else has the same HW and can reproduce this issue using the latest development version of Ubuntu and is willing to do some troubleshooting with it. ** Changed in: xkeyboard-config (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete => Invalid -- keyboard layout broken if restart without usb keyboard https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/214984 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Hi, I don't have the macbook anymore. I'm on a totally different platform now. (a dell d620, which works much better for me) Thanks for your ideas and help, but now I can't test anymore on the macbook...

With Intrepid and Jaunty, we've moved from the -kbd driver to -evdev, so this bug may have just gone away. Can you please test it against Jaunty to verify whether it is still an issue? If it is, then this bug probably actually belongs to xorg- server. ISOs of Jaunty are available at http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/jaunty/ - thanks ahead of time. ** Changed in: xkeyboard-config (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete => Confirmed ** Changed in: xkeyboard-config (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Incomplete -- keyboard layout broken if restart without usb keyboard https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/214984 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 214984] Re: keyboard layout broken if restart without usb keyboard
** Description changed: Hi, I'm using a macbook pro santa rosa 15", azerty keyboard but with dvorak layout. * At work i have an external monitor (vga, attached to the nvidia card) and external mac azerty keyboard attached through usb (alhough i always want to type in dvorak no matter the keyboard) * At home i use the laptop without extra screen or keyboard. At work all is fine, my keyboard works great (and in dvorak). But at home - without the usb keyboard - the login screen is in dvorak, but after logging in the keyboard layout is really weird (and not just azerty or querty) : most of the buttons don't even do anything, and buttons like h and t (in dvorak, j and k in azerty) produce characters like 2 and 1 . This is like this for a few days : broken at home , at work no problem at all. Yesterday i tried selecting 'gnome session' and 'failsafe gnome' instead of the default session but got exactly the same behavior. At some point I even got an error message asking me to report some things but I could'nt type anything so So today, at work again I boot again with usb keyboard and I get "Error activating XKB configuration.", asking me to post the output of 2 commands (see below) Info : ubuntu hardy (apart from maybe 30 hours, containg all latest updates (with default options, no backports, hardy-proposed etc) die...@dieter-mbp:~$ lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu hardy (development branch) Release: 8.04 Xorg 10400090 die...@dieter-mbp:~$ xprop -root | grep XKB _XKB_RULES_NAMES_BACKUP(STRING) = "xorg", "pc105", "us", "dvorak", "lv3:ralt_switch" _XKB_RULES_NAMES(STRING) = "xorg", "pc105", "us", "dvorak", "lv3:ralt_switch" die...@dieter-mbp:~$ gconftool-2 -R /desktop/gnome/peripherals/keyboard/kbd layouts = [usdvorak,be iso-alternate] model = macbook79 options = [lv3 lv3:ralt_switch,grp grp:alts_toggle] overrideSettings = true + [lspci] + 00:00.0 Host bridge [0600]: Intel Corporation Mobile PM965/GM965/GL960 Memory Controller Hub [8086:2a00] (rev 03) + Subsystem: Apple Computer Inc.

[Bug 214984] Re: keyboard layout broken if restart without usb keyboard
Yes I still have this issue, after all this time. However I switched to another distribution (Arch Linux 64bit). I re-used my xorg.conf and I'm having the same issues. The keyboard is broken in the same way (only in xorg), although I don't get the popup errors (but that's probably an ubuntu feature. I switched to Xfcee too btw) So it looks like an xorg (configuration) issue, independent of the distribution. My xorg-server is now (on Arch) 1.4.2, xorg-xkb-utils & xorg-utils 7.3. Right now I'm playing with the kbd xorg keyboard driver and trying out (our leaving out) various options (XkbModel, XkbLayout, XkbOptions etc). What I notice is that sometimes when I started X and Xfce is loaded, the keyoard on the laptop works just fine, but a while later the layout is f*** again (maybe because I've typed on the usb keyboard in the meanwhile?). This happens with these settings: Section "InputDevice" Identifier "Generic Keyboard" Driver "kbd" Option "XkbRules" "xorg" Option "XkbModel" "macbook79" # Option "XkbModel" "pc105" Option "XkbLayout" "be" Option "XkbVariant" "dvorak" # Option "XkbOptions" "lv3:ralt_switch" EndSection ** Attachment added: "output of lspci -vvnn" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/18435169/lspci-vvnn -- keyboard layout broken if restart without usb keyboard https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/214984 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Hi dieter-plaetinck, Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. You reported this bug a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering is this still an issue for you? Can you try with the latest development release of Ubuntu? (ISOs are available from cdimage.ubuntu.com) If it remains an issue, could you also attach a new /var/log/Xorg.0.log? Thanks in advance.

I just did a full reinstall. I installed hardy from the alternate CD (amd64) on LVM volumes on an encrypted partition. I still have the same problem : the keyboard of the macbook works fine when entering the password for the encrypted volume and when logging in, but shows the same weird characters while in X.

To clarify, the error message i got first at home was the same one i got the next day at work. Also, trying different sessions (gnome, gnome failsafe) instead of the default one seemed to start triggering the xkb error on every boot, even though the problem existed already for a week or so. I update every day and the problem is still there btw. Now, at home, I attached a compaq usb keyboard and the keyboard works fine ( for some reason I didn't even get an xkb error message, even though i get them at work with the mac usb keyboard) -- keyboard layout broken if restart without usb keyboard https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/214984 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
