[Bug 1404468] Re: German neo2 keyboard layout: no ALT and SUPER keys
This seems to also affect F12. F12 is the default Yakuake shortcut: it
works when called to manually assign the shortcut, but does not work as
global shortcut to open Yakuake when called from elsewhere.

Title:
German neo2 keyboard layout: no ALT and SUPER keys
Status in xkeyboard-config package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
Affected version: Ubuntu 14.04.
When switching to the Neo 2 keyboard layout, I cannot use the ALT or
SUPER keys at all. To reproduce this bug, do the following:
- In the keyboard system tray menu, select "Text Entry"
- Click "+"
- Select: "Germany (Neo 2)"
- Close the "Text Entry" configuration
- In the keyboard system tray menu, (temporarily) select "Germany (Neo 2)" as active layout.
Now, shortcuts like <ALT>+<TAB>, <ALT>+<F2>, ... are no longer
working. The same goes for the shortcuts I tried with <SUPER>.
Switching to Neo2 by "setxkbmap de neo" has the same result.
For sake of completeness: There are other bug reports regarding Neo2,
reporting that Layer4 (Mod4) is not working. In my case, Mod4 seems to
be working fine.
