Description Couret Charles-Antoine 2011-11-12 12:35:43 UTC 
Description of problem:
I use 2 keymaps with my laptop : the fr-latin9 for my default keymap and fr-bépo keymap with an another keyboard in USB port.

I can switch with Gnome the keymap with an applet in panel. But This not works in two situations :
-If I unplug my trackball, I can't click in this applet. It's necessary to click with right button and select the keymap.

-If I lock my screen, the default keymap is fr-latin-9, even if I have selected bépo-keymap before. And if I click in the button in this screen connexion, the keymap not change but the button displays « fr2 », like I have selected the bépo keymap.


Expected results:

-I could click already in this applet and it's change the keymap.

Additional info:
I use Gnome 3.2 in restricted mode.

Do you use ibus while you indicate the keyboard status-icon instead of ibus one?
Do you install the latest ibus?

# yum install ibus
% rpm -q ibus
ibus-1.4.0-10.fc16.x86_64
Comment 2 Couret Charles-Antoine 2011-11-14 18:00:37 UTC 
[root@DiNozzo ~]# rpm -q ibus
ibus-1.4.0-10.fc16.x86_64

But, the status-icon is not ibus ? With « en », « fr », «fr2 » by way icon.
If it's not ibus, I'm sorry, but the bug is present for this component.
Comment 3 fujiwara 2011-11-15 01:49:46 UTC 
«fr2», the suffix is not implemented in ibus icon yet so I'd expect your icon would be gnome-settings-daemon's keyboard icon.

Why do you think so?
You could disable ibus with 'im-chooser' command and check if your problem could be happened without running ibus.
