This problem seem to be caused that new xorg doesn't support Option "XkbVariant" "latin," for Japanese 106 keyboards, but the upgrade program doesn't rewrite xorg.conf to change "latin," to "106,".
Possible two solutions: a) xkeyboard-config supports Option "XkbVariant" "latin,". b) upgrade program changes "latin," to "106," in the case of Japanese Keyboard a) is better solution than b). This is because there are many xorg.conf examples for Japanese users on many web site including Option "XkbVariant" "latin,". If xkeyboard-config remain the current configuration for JP keybaords, many Japanese users will be puzzled. I'm attaching updated /usr/share/X11/xkb/symbols/jp file which supports "latin,". I hope this file included in new xkeyboard-config package if OK. ** Attachment added: "jp" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/13461091/jp -- Japanese keyboard layout is incorrct in the case of upgrading 7.10 to 8.04 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/217627 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
