[Bug 591895] Re: removing a keyboard layout is not persistent across reboots
Last time I tried with Oneiric beta 1, it was still there. The problem is that if I scroll with keyboard through keyboard layouts during the installation, Ubuntu just freezes, and I have to restart the installation. It happened to me few times. I think the "workaround" is to slide with mouse directly to the keyboard needed, so that's the first and only one selected. Because of this, I decided to use default keyboard layout and to add Bosnian later. But, I then had this issue. It happened few times, and I consider this a bug. I couldn't use what was recommended here on 10" screen netbook. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/591895 Title: removing a keyboard layout is not persistent across reboots To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gdm/+bug/591895/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 591895] Re: removing a keyboard layout is not persistent across reboots
The keyboard layout selected in GDM is passed to the Gnome session but changing the setting in Gnome does not feed back to GDM. So it's one-way for keyboard layout preferences between Gnome and GDM. Yes there is a work-around, but that doesn't make it any less annoying for users who have not noticed the incorrect keyboard layout in GDM. Hence marking confirmed. Also there are many duplicates of this bug, I keep finding more. What should happen: * GDM should list the layouts used in Gnome for the selected user. The last used layout in Gnome should be selected by default. * If a different layout is selected or a new one is added, then this is passed to Gnome on successful login as usual. * Any change to Gnome keyboard layout preferences should be reflected in GDM. (including deleting layouts) This will provide a method of deleting layouts from GDM so will also fix this bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gdm/+bug/421215 Marking duplicates: #638627 #692893 #779509 ** Changed in: gnome-control-center (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete => Confirmed -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/591895 Title: removing a keyboard layout is not persistent across reboots To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gdm/+bug/591895/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Dear Pedro, I think the bug should be closed.

Hi, many thanks for your help, the workaround described in the link you kindly submitted solved the issue. It is actually enough to select System -> Administration -> Login screen -> "Show the screen for choosing who will login" -> reboot -> select the keyboard layout you want to keep and then the keyboard setting is going to stay there. You can then select again the "login as ... automatically" if you wish.
