[Bug 512100] New: wrong keyboard layout suggested in gdm
http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=512100 Summary: wrong keyboard layout suggested in gdm Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.1 Version: Final Platform: PC OS/Version: openSUSE 11.1 Status: NEW Severity: Major Priority: P5 - None Component: GNOME AssignedTo: bnc-team-gnome@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: avagula@gmail.com QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: --- User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.1; et; rv:1.9.1b99) Gecko/20090605 Firefox/3.5b99 (.NET CLR 3.5.30729) In GDM login screen when language is set to Estonian (et), the keyboard is automatically set to Ethiopian (ET). ;) Keyboards use country code, it means that Estonian keyboard is EE. To be clear: Estonian locale code: et_EE or just et as there is no different version widely known. (Ethiopian (amharic) locale code is am_ET which relly can cause a mess) For Estonian users it is a major problem and very annoying, because this field changes back every time when gdm is abnormally aborted. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Bring up login screen 2. set language to Estonian (et) 3. enjoy what is written in keyboard box Actual Results: In keyboard box is Ethiopian (et) Expected Results: Should be Estonian (ee) -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

If you have a build service account, you can download them directly: https://build.opensuse.org/package/show?package=gdm&project=home%3Avuntz%3A11.1-testing https://build.opensuse.org/package/show?package=gnome-settings-daemon&project=home%3Avuntz%3A11.1-testing Else, well, I guess you'll have to retry in a few hours :/ -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Is it possible to get a swamp id? The reason is that the gdm we have in 11.1 misdetects the configured system keyboard layout. This causes the bug as described here, but the main issue is a nasty side-effect: sometimes, an invalid keyboard layout is added to the user configuration, and this can create an error dialog on each login. This will also be an issue for users migrating their settings from 11.1 to 11.2 (I've pushed the necessary fixes in factory, but having them in 11.1 too will help mitigate the issue). The .changes entry for gdm: - Add gdm-use-sax-keyboard-map.patch (bnc#509920): use the correct X layout when reading /etc/sysconfig/keyboard. - Add gdm-keyboard-invalid-user-data.patch: the old gdm was not setting a valid keyboard layout in some cases, and this invalid layout ended up in ~/.dmrc. This patch makes gdm detect this and revert the user data to the default layout. The .changes entry for gnome-settings-daemon: - Add gnome-settings-daemon-filter-invalid-xkb.patch: when the xkb config from gconf can't be used, try to remove invalid xkb layouts first before showing an error dialog. The old gdm used to have invalid layouts. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
