Description of problem: When typing in greek and Greek language (cyprus) is the system language either you can't type letters with the diacritical mark tonos (α -> ά) or somewhere (e.g. Nautilus) you can't type at all. This doesn't happen in Greek language (Greece) as the system language. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Scientific Linux 6.0 -> RHEL6.0 How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. Actual results: -letters without diacritical mark tonos -can't type somewhere Expected results: -letters with diacritical mark tonos -type Additional info: I believe Greek language (Cyprus) as the system language is not needed as the books we use, all our written words, signs, time zone e.c.t are the same as in Greece.

well this is clearly not a gnome-desktop issue. I'm assuming it's some sort of problem with the keyboard layout, but without digging more I'm not sure. Throwing to whot for now.
What is your actual keyboard configuration and where did you select "cyprus"? What is the output of setxkbmap -print and "xkbcomp -xkb :0 -"?
In the login screen, bottom bar, where you can select KDE or gnome. I choose "Ελληνικά Σύγχρονα (Κύπρος)" = "Greek Modern (Cyprus)" $ setxkbmap -print and "xkbcomp -xkb :0 - > > setxkbmap -print and "xkbcomp -xkb :0 - Error! Option "-xkb" not recognized
Please run it separately $> setxkbmap -print > setxkbmap.out $> xkbcomp -xkb :0 - > xkbcomp.out and attach the two files as plain-text here
ping?
