Defering for future. But the inability of specifying "grp" means that the one simply can't use the layout switching, which is quite, hmm, fatal. My question is: is it reproduceable for you (and then for the rest of the world), or it is only my local configuration problem? If it is a local problem, I think I can track it down myself, I just have to know this. Sorry for that report, I've figured out how to do that XFree-4 way. How can I change the resolution to "NOTABUG"? |
From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/4.78 [en] (X11; U; Linux 2.4.19-pre4-ac4 i686) Description of problem: I have these options in the "Keyboard" section of my XF86Config-4 file: XkbRules "xfree86" XkbModel "pc104" XkbLayout "ru" XkbVariant "winkeys" XkbOptions "grp:ctrl_shift_toggle" XkbKeymap "xfree86(ru)" XkbKeycodes "xfree86" However some of them are get ignored. The most annoying is that XkbOption "grp:xxx" gets ignored. What I have in the log about Xkb is this: (**) Option "XkbLayout" "ru" (**) XKB: layout: "ru" (==) Keyboard: CustomKeycode disabled And switching between the default and ru keymap doesn't work. However simply executing `setxkbmap -option "grp:ctrl_shift_toggle"` makes the switching to work correctly. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Put the specified above options to XF86Config-4 2.startx 3.start xterm 4.Press Ctrl+Shift and type something to ensure that swithing doesn't work Actual Results: English characters are typed Expected Results: Cyrillic characters are typed Additional info: XFree86-4.2.0-6.47 from Rawhide. setxkbmap -option "grp:ctrl_shift_toggle" makes switching to work.
