I don't use SSH, so no problems there .

Under wayland, in a Konsole:
yast2 --qt -> azerty
sudo yast2 --qt -> azerty
sudo yast2 --ncurses-> azerty

Under Wayland in krunner:
yast2 -> qwerty (kde ask for root password)

Under X11, it's azerty everywhere.

I've tried to connect to the root account under x11 and wayland and I get the
same results.

Except that the root account is in English and KDE refuses to display it in
French, even though this is the language selected. The same goes for
Yast2-language.

For me there is something happening between SDDM and Wayland that is messing
things up.

I was using plasma 6 - wayland under leap 15.5 and none of this was happening.

So logically it's a new feature introduced under leap 15.6, like the
/etc/X11/xdm/keytable script that Iakov Karpov has criticised. Or something
similar.
