I was not able to reproduce it on Tumbleweed or Leap 15. setxkbmap "cz(ucw)" Shift+W = Ě Shift+S = Š

But I assume you do not use "cz(ucw)" alone, but as a secondary layout in addition to normal Czech layout and switch between them with some hotkey. Maybe the combination of the hotkey and shift is what got broken?

Yes, I use the layout in this combination: setxkbmap "us,cz(ucw)" -option grp:caps_switch The weird thing is that as I wrote, other keys work normally. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

When I type I use CapsLock as a modifier key to add the according accent to letters, so CapsLock+c becomes č CapsLock+Shift+C becomes Č and so on. This happens with all letters except Ě and Š. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

Hmm. With

setxkbmap "us,cz(ucw)" -option grp:caps_switch

Capslock+w = ě Capslock+s = š

While that does. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

With setxkbmap "us,cz(ucw)" -option grp:caps_switch Capslock+Shift+w = nothing Capslock+Shift+s = nothing By the way, also: Capslock+Shift+x = nothing (but maybe that is expected) I tested in Leap 15 in KDE and in Gnome. Xev shows that no event is delivered at all when the W/S/X button is pressed. So it seems that it is not a problem of the mapping, but something prevented the event from being sent. I'll try to debug where it is lost. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

The notebook keyboard is internally connected with some variant of PS/2. If I connect external USB keyboard, the key combination works fine. So I suspect that we are just observing a hardware limitation here. What kind of keyboard do you use? Could you try with different one? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

Unfortunately, we can not do anything about that. You can try to use different key for switching the layouts, for example the Win key: setxkbmap "us,cz(ucw)" -option grp:win_switch Please reopen if the key combination worked in older version of openSUSE or other operating system. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
