As per the background section of this bug report, the work needed to
properly resolve this bug is quite involved, and thus well beyond the
scope of what can be done as an SRU. As well, the issue crops up only
within a specific configuration setup, and not in default installations,
and it has a
there are many bugs about a not working right alt key. and there are
many bugs about a not working shortcut to change keyboard layout (left
alt + right alt). as far as i can tell fixing the right alt key would
also fix the keyboard layout problem.

*anyone* with a non-US keyboard is unable to use it (without
workarounds) due to this bug. Why is the importance of this bug Low?
Especially given how easy it is to fix this bug. All you have to do is
set a different default keyboard switching combination such as
Alt+Shift instead of Alt+Alt

Hello
i'm using Intrepid and the shortcut alt-alt doesn't work, I found alt-Maiusc
working but it has a strange behavior: it changes the layout but to something
that doesn't match with any of the layout I set to use (I use Italian and
Spanish layouts). For example the 'p' key writes '-'.
By
Luca, try using shift-shift to switch layouts, it works for me, and
seems to work for others as well. that may be a happier solution for you
than having to go through the menus.
(and by the way, i have no clue what maiusc is... :) )

Keys together selected, neither pressing the keys or clicking the
Keyboard Indicator applet I added to the Panel change the layout. The
Both Shift keys together seems to fix it with both pressing the keys
and clicking the Keyboard
As others have mentioned, after rebooting, switching does not work
anymore until I deselect Both Shift keys together and reselect it.
Another side effect that might help to nail this bug down is right after
reboot, when switching still doesn't work, if I right-click the Keyboard
Indicator and
Josh:
The part where you reboot and the switching does not work is a known issue that
has been resolved.
In Ubuntu 8.10 it is fixed. However, for Ubuntu 8.04, the packages have not
been updated with this fix.
What happens is that with autologin (I assume you have this enabled), the

I just updated to 8.10 alpha, for me not even normal ALT-TAB works.
Seems like ALT is not acting like a proper modifier key for me, instead
when I press TAB while holding ALT is just acts like I pressed TAB
without holding ALT. This might not be related to this bug though. I use
ATI with radeon
Out of curiosity, could you please try the following,
1. Change the shortcut that lets you switch between keyboard layouts to
LShift+RShift (that it, it does not involve the Alt key)
2. Try again Alt+Tab, etc and report if it now 'works'.
Again, this is an issue that is related to the inner
I can confirm this, but with the following additions:
1. the both-alts shortcut doesn't work ever since the first time i added
a second layout. i didn't have to reboot for it to stop working.
2. changing anything in the keyboard layout preferences does /not/
restore the correct behavior.

I'm facing the same problem. The suggested preload fix doesn't help.
Plus I have an addition to make:
Generally, the layout can be switched either using the hot-keys or by clicking
on the keyboard indicator.
As described, after reboot the hot-keys (like Alt+Alt) don't work any more.
Then I
cannot confirm the suggested fix with purging preload. i have never had
preload installed (plus i purged it, to be sure). and the issue
persists.

I have the same problem after I have updated to:
1) new kernel 2.6.24-21-generic
2) new NVIDIA GLX drivers
So, I suppose that smth. is wrong with NVIDIA
Can you please solve this problem as soon as possible. It is absolutely
impossible for us now to work properly. We are looking now for more
I have solved this problem by:
sudo aptitude purge preload
So, I think it was preload package that caused this issue with Gnome Keyboard
Layout.
