I just did a full reinstall. I installed hardy from the alternate CD (amd64) on LVM volumes on an encrypted partition.
I still have the same problem : the keyboard of the macbook works fine when entering the password for the encrypted volume and when logging in, but shows the same weird characters while in X. When i switch to a virtual console with ctrl+alt+Fx it works fine again So it's apparently only in X, although I don't see anything wrong with the xorg.conf: ---------xorg.conf snippet---------- Section "InputDevice" Identifier "Generic Keyboard" Driver "kbd" Option "XkbRules" "xorg" Option "XkbModel" "pc105" Option "XkbLayout" "us" Option "XkbVariant" "dvorak" Option "XkbOptions" "lv3:ralt_switch" EndSection ---------end xorg.conf snippet---------- [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu 8.04 Release: 8.04 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ xprop -root | grep XKB [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ gconftool-2 -R /desktop/gnome/peripherals/keyboard/kbd layouts = [] model = overrideSettings = true options = [] -- keyboard layout broken if restart without usb keyboard https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/214984 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
