Description of problem: When I first login and open a konsole window, spaces don't get input to the shell, but seem to cause an input method switch. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 1.5.21-9.fc31 How reproducible: Log in. Try to type. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Choose ibus using im-chooser, configure Meta + Space as IME switcher 2. Reboot machine 3. Log in Actual results: Typing a space doesn't enter a space in the terminal, but switches IME. Expected results: Entering a space enters a space. Additional info: · Configured "switch engine" shortcut it Meta + Space. · Meta is Right Win Key, configured in KDE system settings. · I suspect there is a startup ordering issue between keyboard layout configuration and ibus starting. · Restarting ibus (via right-click on "ibus panel" notification icon) fixes it. It also causes the icon to reappear to the left of the "keyboard layout" icon, which bolsters my suspicion this is an ordering issue.
Which desktop do you use? Plasma desktop? (In reply to Bill Crawford from comment #0) > 1. Choose ibus using im-chooser, configure Meta + Space as IME switcher Which tool did you use to configure Meta+space? ibus-setup? > · Meta is Right Win Key, configured in KDE system settings. Probably I think your Win key is Super key instead of Meta key. Meta, Super, Hyper are virtual modifier keys and they are converted to MOD? internally. If your platform does not support a key, ibus simply ignore it.
This message is a reminder that Fedora 31 is nearing its end of life. Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 31 on 2020-11-24. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '31'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not able to fix it before Fedora 31 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete.
It's happened once or twice since, but for now it seems to all be working OK. The Super / Meta thing seems to be a problem with KDE's handling of keyboard mapping; I have "left win is meta" option enabled in the settings. Closing because I don't have any more information.
