Red Hat Bugzilla – Bug 71067
writes an erroneous XF86Config
Last modified: 2008-05-01 11:38:03 EDT
Description of Problem: When you use redhat-config-keyboard to set the keyboard layout, it switches values and fields. For Swedish, the keyboard section should read something like: Option "XkbRules" "xfree86" Option "XkbModel" "pc102" Option "XkbLayout" "se" But what it writes is: Option "XkbRules" "xfree86" Option "XkbModel" "se" Option "XkbLayout" "pc102" ie. the app switches the layout and model fields. That is not a good thing. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Limbo 2 How Reproducible: Every time Steps to Reproduce: Just use it to set the keyboard to Swedish. Additional information: I have at the moment the interesting problem that AltGr isn't properly recognized (which is what led me to start investigating this). Rectifying this does not solve the AltGr problem, however.
Doh, I was inverting layout and model. Should be fixed with 0.9.9-2. QA, please verify.
Fix confirmed with redhat-config-keyboard-0.9.9-2.
---- Additional Comments From sandor.szabo@de.ibm.com 2005-08-10 11:14 EDT ------- We have seen customers creating 2 or more environments to run productive and test instances of the same product. They install using --prefix --force options. The Informix installer uses rpm -e to remove software where always the last installed version will be removed. This could be a huge problem. Currently a fix of a severe warning message has been coded in the Informix product.
