[Bug 1084451] Re: xmodmap modifications get reset once and a while

 

I am on 14.04, this happens to me every time I switch input between
English and Korean (Hangul).

This happens no matter which keyboard layout I use for English input.
I've tried English(US), Korean, and Korean (101/104 Key Compatible) from
the Text Entry Settings and in all scenarios, xmodmap setting was reset
when I switched to and from Korean (Hangul)

Title:
  xmodmap modifications get reset once and a while

Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I change my keyboard layout using and .Xmodmap file. First of all, after upgrading to quantal,
  the changes were no longer applied when logging in with lightdm, so I have to manually run
  xmodmap ~/.Xmodmap in a termina.. This might be related to lightdm, but I suspect not, since
  also, once in a while being logged in for a long time, the keyboard layout changes are completely
  gone, and I have to rerun xmodmap ~/.Xmodmap again.

  I haven't yet found a reliable way of reproducing it, apart from that it usually happens a few
  times each day.

  I don't know whether this bug is related to unity, but if you give me some hints on how
  to find out where the bug is, I'd be happy to investigate.
