Unfortunately, the "setxkbmap" solution doesn't work for me. After I run "setxkbmap", I can indeed switch between Czech and English keyboard (the toolbar indicator now works and the layout changes correctly) but the "dead key" for writing characters with diacritics doesn't work at all. It's completely DEAD (hahaha). When I press the dead key (the key immediately to the right of "-") and then "a", it should produce "รก". However, it produces normal "a", the dead key doesn't do anything and that means I'm unable to write several commonly used Czech characters. After I go to "Keyboard" configuration and change something small, everything works fine - until next reboot.
Everything also works fine when I disable gdm autologin. When I create new user account, it's also mared by this problem. The "xorg.conf solution" is useless for me because it changes the global keyboard configuration for everyone whereas different users on my machine need to use different keyboard configurations. I see the exact same problem on FOUR different machines (all of them updated from 7.10) with quite different hardware and software configurations. I read it works correctly on "virgin" installations. What should I remove/reinstall? Do I realy have to reinstall my whole system just because of this bug? It's very annoying to have to explain to my 70-year old mother that she has to go to "Keyboard" options and change something, then change it back for the keyboard to work in both languages... -- [hardy] keyboard layout switching shortcut doesn't work after reboot https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/196277 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
