Keyboard layout of kdm? 13 weeks 1 day ago

Hallo I've got problems with the kdm in fedora 18.

I use english language for the howl system. But I've a swedish keyboard, because did set the kb-layout with system-config-keyboard to swedish. It worked fine for tty and for KDE4 it self. But it did not change the layout for kdm.

Where are the keyboard layout settings of kdm located? How can I change it?

Upgraded from 11.10 to 12.04. Keyboard Layout from System Settings only shows us listed in options but /etc/default/keyboard contains:

XKBMODEL="pc105" XKBLAYOUT="gb" XKBVARIANT="" XKBOPTIONS=""

/etc/X11/xkb is empty, /etc/X11/xorg.conf does not exist.

How do I recover UK keyboard layout so I can find # " @ etc in the right place again?

Thanks

Wrong Keyboard Map 1 year 11 weeks ago

I have Ubuntu 11.10. I have an English keyboard and have set the keyboard layout to English (UK) in the System settings -> Keyboard Layout. It is the only layout listed.

Recently my keyboard has gone to US layout.

Hello, I need some help regarding keyboard layout. I just installed Fedora 11 on a Powerbook G4 12" ppc computer.

[xubuntu] Keyboard Layout 33 weeks 2 days ago

I have problem with keyboard layout "English (US), English (international AltGr dead keys)". I add it, and all works fine, but when i restart xubuntu 12.04 LTS keyboard layout "English (US), ..." is missing and all keyboard layout settings is set to default.

I need two keyboard layouts: SK, EN (US), but after restart only SK is available. EN not present.

cinnamon keyboard layout 13 weeks 1 day ago

I've just installed cinnamon and looks great. Except I can't see where to set the keyboard layout. There doesn't seem to be a keyboard layout icon on the panel and if I go into cinnamon settings->keyboard all I get are a couple of tabs saying Typing and Keyboard Shortcuts but no keyboard layout? And ideas please?

I'm trying to install F18 (from USB live system - install to hard disk).

When it comes to selecting language, I select English (US) as English (UK) doesn't appear to be available. Since this is only for the installation process, this doesn't worry me.

But when it comes to Keyboard layout, I have a serious problem.

What I want is to be able to press:

Ctrl + Shift + 1 - switch to English keyboard layout Ctrl + Shift + 2 - switch to Hebrew keyboard layout Ctrl + Shift + 3 - switch to Russian(Phonetic) keyboard layout

I've seen similar questions already asked here, but only answers I saw used setxkbmap which breaks the UI keyboard layout selector, which is something undesired.

Thanks for any help.
