Based on the discussion at http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=555261 it seems to me that the problem is slightly different: I have two keyboard layouts. The first one is USA, the second one is Germany dead grave acute. The German layout is marked as "default" in the table, but since I do not use the "separate layout for each window", it turns out that this setting is not used at all, but instead the first layout in the table would be the global default. So, the default should be US in my case.
BUT: If I open a new window as described above, the kbd layout always switches to GERMAN. So to me it looks, like the settings for "separate layout for each window" are somehow applied to the new window, although I do not want this behaviour. Anyway, it is very annoying :-( -- keyboard layout falls back to default when opening file manager or file dialog https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/286158 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
