Description of problem: I use SLIM with XFCE When I do logout and login xfce4-xkb-plugin forgets "change layout" settings. But I still able to change layout by clicking on tray icon. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Rawhide, last update. How reproducible: Without any problem, always happens. Steps to Reproduce: 1.Choose key combination in plugin properties. 2.Do logout in SLIM 3.Login again the same user, and key combination is lost Actual results: Expected results: Additional info:
Are you sure it has something to do with SLIM? Can you reproduce this reliably? I know the plugin resets its configuration sometimes when the panel quits, but I doubt it depends on the login manager. Can you try with LXDM or GDM?
No, it hasn't. This problem hasn't any relation with SLIM. I checked it with GDM. In GDM after logout I have the same result, and it is not "sometimes" it happens always. Interesting, but if I do - "xfce4-panel -r" plugin doesn't forget its configuration. It always happen after "logout/login". I created this bug to make sure someone knows about this annoying problem. Thanks.
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 14 development cycle. Changing version to '14'. More information and reason for this action is here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
Bug still exists, even on Fedora 14.
Ok, I solved this problem by adding: setxkbmap -option grp:ctrl_shift_toggle to the user Xclients script.
Normally this should not be necessary but if, you can better drop a script in /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc.d/. Can you please remove the setxkbmap call for now and test the update from https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/xfce4-xkb-plugin-0.5.3.3-4.fc14 Feedback is welcome!
This update did not make any difference. After logout, login "setxkbmap -print" gives me: xkb_keymap { xkb_keycodes { include "evdev+aliases(qwerty)" }; xkb_types { include "complete" }; xkb_compat { include "complete" }; xkb_symbols { include "pc+us+ru:2+inet(evdev)" }; <--- here should be the toggle xkb_geometry { include "pc(pc102)" }; }; Something removes it did not set up.
