If a window manager is activ (gnome, KDE3 or KDE4) and I open a terminal console or start a gnome/kde program the us keyboard setting is activ. There is a yast tool 'Keyboard Layout' in the hardware section to directly set up the keyboard setting. After start of this tool it displays the following keyboard properties: Type: Microsoft Natural Keyboard Pro / Microsoft Interne... Layout: Germany Variant: nodeadkeys If I make keyboard entries to the test input field the us keyboard settings are still activ. If I repick the layout option Germany the german keyboard setting is activ. After restart of window manager or computer there is the wrong keyboard setting back again. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

(==) Using config file: "/etc/X11/xorg.conf.install"

You're using the failsafe boot option, which means you'll get the X.Org configuration from installation (since it is considered safe, otherwise a graphical installation would not have been possible). For some reason you did the installation with us keyboard layout. If you need to boot into failsafe remove "x11failsafe" option ==> INVALID -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Yast2 reported the german language and keyboard layout are in use. Also the german keyboard layout was available during the yast2 installation process. But the tip on the failsafe boot option gave me the idea to take a look on the grub settings in /boot/grub/menu.lst. For some reason the failsafe boot options have been setup for the standard and the failsafe openSUSE menu entries. This seems to be the real reason for the wrong keyboard layout. ###Don't change this comment - YaST2 identifier: Original name: linux### title openSUSE 11.1 Beta 5 - 2.6.27.5-2 root (hd1,2) kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.27.5-2-pae root=/dev/disk/by-id/ata-Hitachi_HTS542516K9SA00_080226BB0C00WGKTE30A-part3 ide=nodma apm=off noresume nosmp maxcpus=0 edd=off powersaved=off nohz=off highres=off processor.max_cstate=1 x11failsafe showopts vga=0x317 initrd /boot/initrd-2.6.27.5-2-pae ###Don't change this comment - YaST2 identifier: Original name: failsafe### title Failsafe -- openSUSE 11.1 Beta 5 - 2.6.27.5-2 root (hd1,2) kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.27.5-2-pae root=/dev/disk/by-id/ata-Hitachi_HTS542516K9SA00_080226BB0C00WGKTE30A-part3 showopts ide=nodma apm=off noresume nosmp maxcpus=0 edd=off powersaved=off nohz=off highres=off processor.max_cstate=1 x11failsafe vga=0x317 initrd /boot/initrd-2.6.27.5-2-pae -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
