Quick summary: for some reason living in X and difficult to solve at the moment, the current default keybinding to switch keyboard layout (Alt_L+Alt_R) does not work and can not work.
Since it's not easily fixable, we can change the keybinding to something that works (Shift_L+Shift_R, for example). At least, it will work. But on the other hand, this will break user expectations for users who are used to the current keybinding (and we'll likely switch back to Alt_L+Alt_R in a future release, once it's working).
The less worst solution, IMHO, is to change the keybinding for now and, if possible, hide the non-working keybindings, so people who care enough to look at the options can only select something that works.
Thoughts?
I set it to Shift_L+Shift_R here when i noticed Alt_L+Alt_R didn't work, but I didn't give it much thought beyond that. I'm in favor of having a workaround, even if it's not ideal, so using the shift keys makes sense. +1 for removing the non-working keybindings too. -- Hans Petter -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+help@opensuse.org
