I believe that the text entry "Portuguese (Brazil, nativo for US
keyboards)" presents a Dvorak layout, which is very different from a US
keyboad. I attached a picture for first text entry.

   Keyboard Layout "Portuguese (Brazil, nativo for US keyboards)" doesn't respect US keyboard layout.

Title:
  Problem with the Portuguese keyboard layout

Status in xkeyboard-config package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  In Ubuntu 11.10 "Oneiric Ocelot", the Portuguese keyboard layout is partial incorrect as some specific keys of this keyboard are switched. Is there any way I can fix this? Can I add different or legacy keyboard layouts is there any way to edit this keyboard layout?
  After some updates, now when I choose to use Portuguese (Nativo) layout in "Keyboard Layout" from "System Settings" I have the following error:

  Error activating XKB configuration.
  There can be various reasons for that.

  Results:

   • xprop -root | grep XKB
       _XKB_RULES_NAMES_BACKUP(STRING) = "evdev", "pc105", "pt", "", ""
       _XKB_RULES_NAMES(STRING) = "evdev", "macbook78", "pt,pt", ",nativo", "grp:shift_caps_toggle"

   • gsettings get org.gnome.libgnomekbd.keyboard model
      'macbook78'

   • gsettings get org.gnome.libgnomekbd.keyboard layouts
      ['pt', 'pt\tnativo']

   • gsettings get org.gnome.libgnomekbd.keyboard options
      ['grp\tgrp:shift_caps_toggle']

  Thank you in advance.
