[Bug 1316913] Re: wrong keybord layout at system start

 

Hi, 
we have resolved this bug with :
Open your text editor in root, got to /ect/lightdm.lightdm/down to [seat default] find the line #display setup script= replace by 
display setup script=/usr/bin/setxkbmap be  (for me)
 remove the # and finaly restart with (always in root) service lightdm restart..... Don't forget before to close all app's open...... good luck  8-)
