Hmhm, I guess you mean .config/autostart/xfce4-settings-helper.desktop. The thing is, xfce4-settings-helper is the tool managing the settings, so indeed if you don't have it running, no settings will by applied at startup. Could you attach your .config/xfce4/xfconf/xfce-perchannel-xml/xfce4-keyboard-shortcuts.xml, .config/xfce4/xfconf/xfce-perchannel-xml/keyboard-layout.xml and .config/xfce4/xfconf/xfce-perchannel-xml/keyboards.xml to the bug report. You may want to backup them and move them out of the way to start with a fresh config wrt. keyboard setup, too. > It's late and I needed my setup working for tomorrow, so I hurried > things a bit, but I still have the pristine old .config, so I can > check diffs... > > > No effect, like, you can't set the shortcut, or the layout doesn't > > change?

Changing the layout (for example I have us and fr configured here) should definitely change the keymap. The model change could change some stuff (and especially stuff wrt. media keys) too, but not the all keymap. > > Sorry, it's a keyboard model, not layout.

Or did you set it in xorg.conf and used “use system defaults”? Cheers, -- Yves-Alexis
