Not work 3 keyboard layouts

Then I use 2 languages, Option "XkbLayout" "us,lt" in /etc/X11/xorg.conf, then work keyboard layout.
If I use 3 languages in XkbLayout, then not work layout.
There some part of /etc/X11/xorg.conf:
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Generic Keyboard"
Driver "kbd"
Option "CoreKeyboard"
Option "XkbRules" "xorg"
Option "XkbModel" "pc105"
Option "XkbLayout" "us,lt,ru"
Option "XkbOptions" "grp:alt_shift_toggle"
EndSection

You didn't tell what's your problem is though. I suppose you just cannot switch layouts with Alt-Shift, right?
Try if Shift-Alt (sic!) works for you. Also try grp:ctrl_shift_toggle (only RightCtrl-Right shift work, LeftCtrl-LeftShift switches to first layout instantly).
alikas wrote:So it is bug?
Yes. Both xkeyboard-config 0.6 and 0.9 are buggy, but bugs are triggered for specific keyboard layout combinations.
For example, I had bug with 0.6 with my xorg config, while many others don't.
0.9 fixed bug for me, but now other people have problems.
As you may see in that bug report the problem mostly depends on XkbLayout combination, though I thought it was due to grp:alt_shift_toggle first.

Keyboard and trackpad are not working, Keyboard and trackpad are not working

I'm using MBP 15" late 2008 with Maverick OS. A couple of days ago, the internal keyboard and trackpad are not working at all. I did all the troubleshooting. I even reformat it; installing the snow leopard and re-installing the maverick but no good result. I believe there's no problem with my keyboard because i can still do PRAM on my lappy. Everytime i'm booting up my MBP, it always looking for bluetooth trackpad and keyboard. I have not used those bluetooth peripherals from day 1 i've started using MBP. I just read on the internet about the same problem has happened on MBP 13" retina and APPLE fixed it by updating the software. I wish Apple will also do something for the old MBP to fix the intermal keyboard and trackpad problem.

G70-250US notebook synaptics mouse pad will not work & keyboard will only work until I log onto pc

I have a G70-250US model notebook with Vista 32. I decided to reload OS due to issues with mouse pad and keyboard. I still have the same problem whereby the mouse pad will not work and keyboard will only work until I log in and then it will not work. External mouse and keyboard will work fine. I tried uninistalling drivers for both and rebooting and letting OS find new hardware and install the drivers and this still did not correct. I even pulled down the synaptics driver from HP site and still not working. I checked the BIOS and it is the most recent. I am at a loss. Any ideas on these issues.

I have an old Dell Dimension 2400 I plan to use as a replacement for the Sony Vaio when it pops. I've held out as long as possible because it lacks a pci or usb wifi and I really didn't want to run 50 feet of cat5 up a flight of stairs to it. [as i type this i think i remember where a linksys stick for it might be]. Yes I guess it's about time I just do that.
Don't laugh but the reason I held off adding a simple usb keyboard was just lack of space in my tiny bedroom. My setup is on two tray tables side-by-side. Sony Vaio is on left one, my lcd monitor and mouse are on the other. I barely have room to put a cup of coffee on the one with monitor and mouse let alone a full size usb keyboard lol.
Anyway thank you again for all your help.

Controlling Dutch MacBooks from a German MacBook (keyboard layout)

I work at a company which has about 200 MacBooks with Dutch keyboard layouts (QWERTY), but I've got a German keyboard layout (QWERTZ) on my own MacBook. ARD is installed on my MacBook with German Keyboard layout.
For some reason ARD uses the keyboard layout of the MacBook I'm controlling, instead of the keyboard layout of my own MacBook. So, when I'm controlling a MacBook with a Dutch keyboard layout and I press the Z key, a Y appears on the screen.
Why does ARD use the keyboard layout of the Mac I'm controlling, instead of the keyboard layout of the Mac ARD is running on? My fingers aren't situated on the keyboard of the Mac I'm controlling, but on the keyboard of my own Mac. In my opinion it would be obvious to use the keyboard layout of my own Mac, not the keyboard layout of the Mac I'm controlling.
How else are you going to manage hundreds of Macs in an international company which has English, German, French, Japanese, Chinese and some other keyboard layouts? Everytime you log on to a remote Mac you have to find out which keyboard layout is used on the remote Mac. This sounds as a serious bug to me.
Isn't there a way to let ARD use the keyboard layout of the Mac on which ARD is installed, instead of that of the system I'm controlling?

It may not be what you are after, but when I lived in Austria, I bought a normal desktop keyboard (German) and used that plugged in to the USB port on my PowerBook.

Keyboard layouts, linux and Swing

Hi,
I have some applications written with Swing. They run fine on Windows but on my linux box I can't type national (non-us) characters in it. I also did run JEdit which also behaves wrong - it can display non-us characters when I load file from disk but regardless of what keyboard layout I choose in KDE it can't recognize it correctly. Linux programs works fine.
I did some investigations and found, that KeyListener always returns 0x00 for those keystrokes which should produce national characters.
I need to be able to switch keyboard layouts at runtime without changing OS locale - this is multilangual application.
So, my question is: what do I have to do with my linux box setup to have correctly working keyboard layouts with swing applications? Mabe someone can explain me how java reads keyboard in X-es?
regards,
Tomasz Sztejka

Ok, I have found that when I set system locale to pl_PL (by export LC_ALL="pl_PL" from shell) then Polish keyboard works.
The problem is, I can't do that - the system locale must be left unspecified (POSIX or C) and Java application must be able to accept input from many languages all around the world.
For example, if I switch keyboard to bulgarian, swing sees some japanese (or similar) characters. On the other hand, when I will set locale to ru_RU then russian layout works correctly, while polish does produce garbage.
Please, help!

Gnome ignores keyboard layout settings

Hi everybody!
As easy as the title states, I set a number of keyboard layouts in Gnome and sort them in the relevant window, but every time I start a new session the English layout is automatically selected, against what I specified.
It's the only problem that wasn't fixed by switching to systemd.
Any idea?

I have exactly the same problem. I want to have multiple layouts, but it just seems impossible. English takes precedence for some reason. System settings do not have any impact on the setup. They are completely ignored.
The example on Gentoo only deals with one layout as does archlinux wiki. I need se, en, ru. But seems impossible for the time being. I guess gnome 3 does not separate keyboard layouts and regional layouts. Gnome 3 can only handle regional settings. To be absolutely clear, I would prefer gnome to show the menus in English, but use a Swedish keyboard layout.

Keyboard layout switching not working

i use xfce4 and i created /etc/X11/xorg.conf
Section "InputClass"
Identifier "Keyboard Defaults"
MatchIsKeyboard "yes"
Option "XkbLayout" "us, ar"
Option "XkbOptions" "grp:alt_shift_toggle"
EndSection
but it's not working.
xfce4 has a program called Keyboard in settings menu, i used it it gives the ability to add another language but it doesnt has a switching capability.

I don't use keyboard layout switch through xorg.conf because it stops to work sometimes(if i use setxkbmap for example).
So i am using setxkbmap in .xinitrc.
setxkbmap -model pc105 \
-layout "de,ru" \
-variant "basic,phonetic" \
-option -option "grp:sclk_toggle, grp_led:scroll, terminate:ctrl_alt_bksp, caps:none"
and "kbdd" for remembering layout for each window.
Change it to your needs or check the arch wiki about xorg.conf.d .

Ukelele generated custom keyboard layouts not working in Lion?

I asked this question in the stackexchange site a few days ago. Nothing I've tried has worked so far, except for creating a new account. Because a fresh account works, it's got to be something with my preferences, right?
http://apple.stackexchange.com/questions/21691/ukelele-generated-custom-keyboard -layouts-not-working-in-lion
Here's the question from above:
I created a custom keyboard layout with Ukelele (http://scripts.sil.org/ukelele) in Snow Leopard (idea is to generate scandinavian letters with Alt-key, otherwise have a pretty much standard U.S. layout). After the upgrade, the old installed (to ~/Library/Keyboard Layouts) layout wasn't working.
Ukelele seems to work OK in Lion, but whether I put the generated keylayout in a bundle or single file, or save it "/Library/Keyboard Layouts" or "~/Library/Keyboard Layouts" doesn't seem to matter.
Help?
EDIT:
@Sergio, I cannot choose the layout in Input Sources. One keylayout file I tried:http://semeai.org/~sjl/us-scands.keylayout
[EDIT: Removed unrelated stuff]
UPDATE 2011/08/15:
@Tom:
Copied your keylayout (it naturally ended up in my Junk folder):
midgard (01:55) >ls -l ~/Library/Keyboard\ Layouts/MongolianQWERTY.keylayout-rw-r--r--@ 1 sjl staff 44536 Mar 13 2008 /Users/sjl/Library/Keyboard Layouts/MongolianQWERTY.keylayout
Logged out, logged in, isn't showing in Input sources (I'm looking very closely between "Maori" and "Myanmar - QWERTY").
I've also uninstalled bunch of software and plugins giving suspicious messages to system.log, but hasn't helped.
UPDATE 2011/08/16:
I created a test account, and lo, the layout works perfectly for it. Also the bug in preferences doesn't show for that account. When trying this on my own account, there are no errors in Console logs with the suggested keywords (I can't seem to locate console.log file, though).
UPDATE 2011/08/16 later:
Nuking Library/Caches (and relogging) didn't help.
UPDATE 2011/08/17:
I did
% find Library -name "*.plist" -exec mv {} {}.renamed \;
and restarted, but it didn't help. I restored the situation with
% for file in `find Library -name "*.plist.renamed"`; \ do mv "$file" "${file//.renamed/}"; done
addendum: I also went through all the .plist files with plutil -s as described inhttp://www.askdavetaylor.com/can_i_check_my_plist_files_in_mac_os_x_for_problems .html. There was some brokennes, but in very unrelated applications.

Tom,
I think I love you.
That absolutely did it! Thanks so much!
If you'll answer with the same link in the stackexchange site, I'll mark the answer as correct, so you'll get the rep there.
Thanks,
Sami

Danish Keyboard Layout working in Gnome but not in Kde

Hi!,
I'm trying to get to work the Danish Keyboard layout in Kde, with no success. In Gnome it works fine, but in Kde (or well, any Qt based app), when I hit å, ø, or try to write accents, I get two white quads instead of the correct character. It works if I write them in a gtk aplication, copy and paste in a kde app.. but...
Does anyone knows what can be possibly happening?
My xorg.conf has
Option "XkbRules" "xorg"
Option "XkbModel" "pc105"
Option "XkbLayout" "dk"
and Kde is configured to use the DK Layout.
thanks!
silencer
ps. I wrote this in gnome

Ouh, no.. I have another problem
I want the language (for apps like gcc, or mc) to be english, not danish, so I replaced in rc.conf da_DK.utf8 by en_DK.utf8, and got the language as english, but now.. accents doesn't work anymore. They do work, again, under gnome, but not in kde. Any ideas?
thanks a lot
silencer

[SOLVED] German keyboard layout working in XDM, but not in E17?

Hello out there,
After a fresh installation of my Arch Linux box, I want to use e17.
Everything works fine, except that e17 does not take over the german keyboard layout that I configured for X.
This is the content of my /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-keyboard.conf:
Section "InputClass"
Identifier "keyboard"
MatchIsKeyboard "yes"
Option "XkbLayout" "de"
Option "XkbVariant" "nodeadkeys"
EndSection
Under XDM, I can enter Umlauts and everything is fine. In e17, this is not the case.
I am sure that I already had this problem in the past but I can't remember the solution.
Any ideas?
EDIT: Now I put this in the file 10-evdev.conf, but with still no more effect.
Section "InputClass"
Identifier "evdev keyboard catchall"
MatchIsKeyboard "on"
MatchDevicePath "/dev/input/event*"
Driver "evdev"
Option "XkbLayout" "de"
Option "XkbVariant" "nodeadkeys"
EndSection

Solved only for basic variants of keyboard layouts. I use 'cz qwerty', but no option for this xkbmap variant is icluded into XKBSwitch module. Loading this variant manually via setxkbmap command is possible'but annoying... There is no support for XKB variants in e17 when X used and supported by e17 provide the job reliably but of extraordinary way for e17 configuration.

Keyboard layout switching does not work if I connect a second keyboard

When I connect an external keyboard (a very ordinary Dell keyboard, no extra keys or something unusual) to my laptop, XFCE keyboard layout switcher disappears from a the and keyboard shortkut meant to switch also does not work. Rebooting with the keyboard initially attached does not help. Any ideas how to fix?

Non-english keyboard layouts work in some programs, not others

In some programs, I can set a non-English keyboard layout and have the appropriate behavior when it comes to diacritics - in, say, the brazilian layout, hitting { then a will give me a á, and so on. It works perfectly fine in Firefox and xchat, for instance. But in other programs, opera and openoffice to name two I've tried, this fails. I either get a garbage character when I hit the first diacritic key or I just get the diacritic by itself and then the accentless vowel: ´a.
Completely non-English characters still work fine; I can get ç in the Brazilian layout and ñ in Latin American and the Georgian one works fine too, since Georgian doesn't have diacritics I presume. It's just diacritics that don't work.
I first noticed this problem after I installed SCIM, so I assume it has something to do with the SCIM installation, but I don't know what I did in the process of installing it that would've messed things up.
