I've seen hints when googling that it's an issue with gdm, but I've not pinned it down. I've been having to remember to change the keyboard on login every time.

Fedora12 keyboard choice setting is not respected.
Living in Canada and working bilingually, my keyboard is Canada French ca(fr). It is not USA. I run Fedora12 in English, but the keyboard is the one I mentioned. Here is the problem that recently started to occur. When I chose my logon, Gnome shows USA as the keyboard. If I do not change it, then the USA keyboard will take precedence over my logged in Gnome settings. Furthermore, if I go to System-->preferences-->keyboard, it shows Canada as default, and USA as behind it. Even though I click on Canada, I cannot get rid of the USA settings until I delete it. If I log out and return, the problem returns. What can I do to correct this aggravating annoyance? My problem never occurred with earlier Fedora versions (example F4 to F12 pre-February) Is the USA default forced because I chose English as my basic language. It was no problem in the past, why is it one now? -- Regards Leslie Mr. Leslie Satenstein mailto:lsatenst...@yahoo.com mailto lesl...@itbms.biz www.itbms.biz -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
