well I can only confirm that the problem on my ubuntu 13.10 with gnome installed still exist.
an ugly workaround can be done with xkb of course. I added as a startup command/application through the startup application preferences the following command setxkbmap -layout "de,il" -option "grp:alt_shift_toggle" and disabled all gnome shortcuts to switch layout and left only one layout as option. (deleted the hebrew layout and left only the german one in this case) (tried to do it also through xorg and /etc/default/keyboard and /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/something but both gotten overwritten) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1244158 Title: GNOME: Modifiers Only keyboard layout switch have no effect To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-settings-daemon/+bug/1244158/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
