It seems I've stumbled across a better workaround: this did work for a Ubuntu 14.04 Gnome and 14.04 Unity (which had Gnome Shell installed in parallel and was started into Gnome Shell).
I've selected German Neo 2 as first keyboard layout and plain German as second. After selecting Neo and rebooting, in the login-screen there are still only German and English available as layouts (didn't find a way to change that) - but after logging in, Neo is automatically selected, and all keys seem to work. Note that I've stayed away from switching to another layout since then as I guess that would make keys infunctional again. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1404468 Title: German neo2 keyboard layout: no ALT and SUPER keys To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xkeyboard-config/+bug/1404468/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
