Description Radek Vykydal 2026-09-09 11:25:46 UTC
When testing https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:Testcase_Non-English_European_Language_Install with cz keyboards, I hit an issue entering disk encryption password. Although the screen showed cz as active, it seems us was actually active as hitting key '1' produced '1' and not the expected '+' (see the screenshots).

Using Fedora-LXQt-Live-45-20260908.n.0.x86_64.iso

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start installation of Fedora LXQt Live
2. On the welcome screen select Czech language, czech keyboard gets autoselected.
3. Proceed, select disk encryption, see the info text that `cz` will be used during system start.
4. In the passphrase entry click eye icon to see the passphrase and hit QQQQQ1 keys in the password entry.
Actual Results:
'qqqqq1' string is produced (us keyboard)


Expected Results:
'qqqqq+' string is produced (cz keyboard)

Note: the issue is different from https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2529779. (Using wayland vs X11).
