Description Leslie Satenstein 2014-11-05 14:32:59 UTC
Description of problem:

Refer to  1008502

Ever since Fedora 18,Fedora19,Fedora20, and now Fedora21, the keyboard layouts only show the Physical US PC104 Layout.  

I have raised bug reports for Fedora 18, Fedora 19, Fedora 20, and now for Beta-2 of Fedora21.  

We who are outside of the United States of America, use a keyboard with layout PC105.  Up to and including Fedora 17, our keyboards were correctly depicted.
Now they are not.

There is a keytop that is omitted from the keyboard layouts. This keytop is located between the left shift key and the Z key.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

Fedora 18, Fedora 19, Fedora 20 and Fedora 21.


How reproducible:

Click to show layout.

This problem of not being addressed, spills over to the ON-SCREEN keyboard, which must reflect the keyboard layout chosen.  Bug 1008502 is one of the earlier registrations of the problem.  



Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install Fedora, select Canada French keyboard.  or select Latam layout
2.
3.

Actual results:


Expected results:

By the way, debian/ubuntu have it right. So does Centos 6.5

Its the new Gnome 3.x that is in error
