I don't know if this is the same problem, but I just upgraded to 11.10 (released) on my Gateway netbook. The keyboard map is all messed up (I am using English(US)). In particular, the arrow keys (with or without numlock on) return the wrong keysyms I've tried several of the English settings, with no success.
Note that I'm running gnome classic using gdm (I could never get lightdm to select anything but unity). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-control-center in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/834523 Title: Can't change the keyboard layout from a default install Status in “gnome-control-center” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in “gnome-control-center” source package in Oneiric: Fix Released Bug description: Ubuntu now hides the Region & Language Settings panel of System Settings in favor of Ubuntu's Language Support capplet.
