I still wonder why typing in Dvorak should be different, because *some other* layout exists. I want to be able to quickly switch to German layout, if friends are at my place. I don't see why the German layout can't behave German just as well as the Dvorak layout could behave Dvoraky. A German keyboard has the y where the US 'z' is, so of course ctrl-y is on top of y. In Dvorak it should be exactly the same (no matter what other keymap my system also happens to have available). Of course you're not the person I need to convince here. It's just sad that the system isn't more configurable. I think it wouldn't be hard to get the "Russian" functionality with something like an override, i.e. a config file that specified where on the non-latin keyboard a ctrl-C would be mapped (instead of the default that is hard-coded somewhere). And of course, what we want is merely working behavior for *latin* keyboards, not (just) for kyrillic, which would be a special case, as many languages just use latin. Those languages should map whatever key they have to the corresponding ctrl-key (as described above). Is this already decided by some key (political) Gnome or Gtk developers, or do you think there is hope? -- Tomboy and Dvorak https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/110208 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
