I am on Debian Wheezy (kernel 3.10-3), and have the same problem with my Logitech Unifying Receiver and a gb keyboard: it remains in us layout after setting the gb layout in /etc/default/keyboard. I found several bug reports for this problem, but no fix. As a workaround, I add this in /etc/kde4/kdm/Xsetup . /etc/default/keyboard /usr/bin/setxkbmap -layout $XKBLAYOUT
That works perfectly (of course, the path must be adapted for an other display manager than kdm) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-input-evdev in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/993827 Title: Logitech Wireless keyboard has bad layout on login screen Status in “xserver-xorg-input-evdev” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: I've got a DELL E6410 laptop on a dock station with 2 screens plugged on it. I use a Logitech MX720 AZERTY keyboard and a Logitech M705 mouse (both wireless with the Logitech Unifying Receiver). I've just installed Ubuntu 12.04 (fresh install) and my problem is that my Wireless keyboard is always in QWERTY on the login screen (I've tried lightmd and gdm... same behaviour), my laptop keyboard is in AZERTY (like the wireless will must be). In the Xorg.0.log my keyboards are seen in layout 'fr' and variant 'oss' both... If I type my password with my laptop keyboard I'm logged in AZERTY but if I type my password on my wireless keyboard, I'm logged in QWERTY...
