Description Adam Pribyl 2007-10-06 18:24:34 UTC
Description of problem:
In F8t3 there are not layouts and keyboard variants to select in
gnome-keyboard-properties.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
2.20.0-1.fc8

How reproducible:
Allways

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Systenm -> Preferences -> Hardware -> Keyboard -> Layouts
2. try to select keyboard model (Unknown by default) - there is nothing
3. +Add Layouts or Variants  - the lists are empty
  
Actual results:
It efectively prevents usage of any other keyboard layout than US.
I consider this as major loss of functionality.

Expected results:
At least the same selection as in F7.

Additional info:
Tested on LiveCD and after installation from LiveCD.

I cannot reproduce the problem. 
I see the same lists as always.

What version of xkeyboard-config do you have ?

Moving to F8Blocker for further investigation.

Matthias -- I see this reliably with live CDs but also don't get it on my
laptop.  So I suspect it's something about fresh installs vs not.  The duped bug
has a screenshot (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/attachment.cgi?id=218881) of the
errors on the tty gnome-keyboard-properties is launched from.

There was indeed a problem in with markup in translations in
xkeyboard-config-1.1-1.fc8, but that should be fixed in 1.1-2.fc8.

That is why I want to know what version of xkeyboard-config this problem has
been seen with.


Comment 5 Adam Pribyl 2007-10-09 09:41:28 UTC
This is F8T3 with xkeyboard-config-1.1-1.fc8. After update to current
development xkeyboard-config-1.1-3.fc8 problem seems fixed. If this gets into F8
then please close the bug. Thanx
