When you click on your name in GDM, you can see a keyboard layout selector at the bottom of the screen. Is this set to US? > Is this set to US?
Yes it is.

Description of problem: Can`t switch x11 keyboard layout. According to Xorg.0.log and lshal output everything is OK. How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install fedora rawhide(10_beta) 2. Choose Russian keyboard layout in system-config-keyboard 3. reboot 4. Login to Gnome Session - there is no Russian keyboard layout at all Actual results: Can`t input russian texts Additional info: Here is information from hal about keyboard settings: udi = '/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/platform_i8042_i8042_KBD_port_logicaldev_input' info.subsystem = 'input' (string) input.xkb.model = 'pc105' (string) info.product = 'AT Translated Set 2 keyboard' (string) input.keymap.data = { 'e001:fn_esc', 'e009:battery', 'e00a:screenlock', 'e00b:camera', 'e00c:media', 'e00e:dvd', 'e031:help', 'e033:f21', 'e057:wlan', 'e008 :player', 'e058:f22', 'e059:f23' } (string list) input.xkb.layout = 'us,ru' (string) info.category = 'input' (string) info.udi = '/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/platform_i8042_i8042_KBD_port_logicaldev_input' (string) input.xkb.options = 'grp:shifts_toggle,grp_led:scroll' (string) input.x11_driver = 'evdev' (string) linux.sysfs_path = '/sys/devices/platform/i8042/serio0/input/input5/event5' (string) input.device = '/dev/input/event5' (string) info.callouts.add = { 'hal-setup-keymap', 'fedora-setup-keyboard' } (string list) info.parent = '/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/platform_i8042_i8042_KBD_port' (string) info.capabilities = { 'input', 'input.keyboard', 'input.keypad', 'input.keys', 'input.keymap', 'button' } (string list) input.product = 'AT Translated Set 2 keyboard' (string) input.originating_device = '/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/platform_i8042_i8042_KBD_port' (string) linux.hotplug_type = 2 (0x2) (int) info.addons.singleton = { 'hald-addon-input' } (string list) linux.subsystem = 'input' (string) linux.device_file = '/dev/input/event5' (string) input.xkb.rules = 'base' (string) I found that fedora-setup-keyboard used as hal hook to set up layouts. When I`m trying to use custom xkb settings: 1) # chmod -x /usr/bin/fedora-setup-keyboard and put following *.fdi file 2) # cat /etc/hal/fdi/policy/x11-input.fdi <?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?> <deviceinfo version="0.2"> <device> <match key="info.capabilities" contains="input.keyboard"> <merge key="input.xkb.layout" type="string">us,ru</merge> <merge key="input.xkb.options" type="string">grp:alt_shift_toggle,grp_led:scroll</merge> </match> </device> </deviceinfo> Here is Xorg.0.log (II) XINPUT: Adding extended input device "AT Translated Set 2 keyboard" (type: KEYBOARD) (**) Option "xkb_rules" "evdev" (**) AT Translated Set 2 keyboard: xkb_rules: "evdev" (**) Option "xkb_model" "pc105" (**) AT Translated Set 2 keyboard: xkb_model: "pc105" (**) Option "xkb_layout" "us,ru" (**) AT Translated Set 2 keyboard: xkb_layout: "us,ru" (**) Option "xkb_options" "grp:alt_shift_toggle,grp_led:scroll" (**) AT Translated Set 2 keyboard: xkb_options: "grp:alt_shift_toggle,grp_led:scroll" But Alt+Shift switch doesn`t work - only US layout available PS: Sorry for my English
