In case you don't need to switch between keyboard layouts, you can get some shortcuts working again if you use the "Tweaks" tool for Gnome.
sudo apt install gnome-tweak-tool Then 1. Open "Tweaks" 2. Select the tab "Keyboard & Mouse" 3. Click "Additional Layout Options" 4. Disable entries in the "Switching to another layout" dialog In my case this gave me back the "ALT + SHIFT" combinations which are essential in the Eclipse IDE for refactoring. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1683383 Title: Keyboard layout change on hotkeys press instead of release and do not work well with shortcuts (reopen) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/xorg-server/+bug/1683383/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
