** Description changed:
In the keyboard layout preferences, you can set "Both alt keys together
change layout", which worked in Gutsy for toggling between keyboard
layouts.
Currently:
* "both alt keys..." does not toggle keyboard layouts
* "both ctrl keys..." does not toggle keyboard layouts
* "both shift keys..." works fine
* "Alt+shift" works fine
+ Steps to reproduce it are:
+ * Visit System->Preferences->Keyboard-Layouts
+ * Press Add and add a new layout.
+ * Close preferences.
+ * Open Text Editor or whatever you want and write something with Double-Alts
it switch layout and writes with the other layout
+ OK till now.
+ * Reboot.
+ * Open a text editor and try to switch layout... Boom! It doesn't work!
+
+ Temporary Workaround. Open Layouts again and remove/add the second
+ layout to start working again.
+
The text in the applet will change, to make it appear to be setting the
correct layout, but the changes do not take effect.
Actually shortcut doesn't work at all, I set to be alts toggle in keyboard
preferences, and it doesn't work, another thing is that even with keyboard
indicator applet you change language, it doesn't changes, name in the applet
changes, but it doesn't work. I need to open keyboard preferences, layout
options, remove the tick and then put it back on keyboard layout switching
shortcut.. As I said, shortcut doesn't work after this, but applet starts to
change the layout, not only letters on itself.
This issue has been sufficiently confirmed. Please do not comment on
this bug unless you have some information that will help solve the bug.
