--- Comment #2 from php4...@gmail.com --- I found System Settings => Input Devices => Keyboard => Layouts and found out there was only one layout, US English. I added Spanish there, removed English, and now everything works as expected. I don't know why the only layout in System settings was English. I don't know whether that setting belongs to KDE or if it is more low-level and system-wide. If it is the latter, then somehow installing KDE changed it, because I know I had Spanish as the only one or at least as the selected one before. If it's KDE-specific, then KDE should have asked me when installing or on the first login, because it's a very basic setting. That only explains part of the issue. Apparently there are two layers: system keyboard layout, and iBus (whatever that is) with its "input methods" (whatever they are). Apparently, on startup, even if you have a given input method selected, and even though it shows up as selected in the ibus indicator, it is not applied. The system layout is applied instead, until you explicitly change the input method. That's broken. And if you only have one input method, then it's never applied and you cannot force it to be applied by explicitly selecting it because it's already selected. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
