my etc/default/keybord: # Check /usr/share/doc/keyboard-configuration/README.Debian for # documentation on what to do after having modified this file. # The following variables describe your keyboard and can have the same # values as the XkbModel, XkbLayout, XkbVariant and XkbOptions options # in /etc/X11/xorg.conf. XKBMODEL="pc105" XKBLAYOUT="no" XKBVARIANT="" XKBOPTIONS="" # If you don't want to use the XKB layout on the console, you can # specify an alternative keymap. Make sure it will be accessible # before /usr is mounted. # KMAP=/etc/console-setup/defkeymap.kmap.gz This seam to be a genelral problem for norwegian keybords. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/993820 Title: The keyboard layout selector does not work To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-control-center/+bug/993820/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
