Public bug reported:
Users experience severe keyboard layout poblems with Java apps:
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=5409242#post5409242
I'm also affected as well, regardless of default and secondary keyboard
layout for all Java GUI apps (swing, awt, and even applets):
- Java sticks by the default keyboard layout. I can easily and
successfully switch to any other layout (the input differs in non-Java
programs), but it remains the default one for Java applications. (By
default I mean the X startup layout.)
- 3rd level keys never ever work. Fort English layout AltGr+5 should be
the Euro sign, and (in my example) for Hungarian AltGr+- should be the
asterisk. It just simply does not work, instead a 5 or - gets typed. But
for non-Java apps tge input works flawless.
