[Bug 990214] Re: Wrong keyboard layout by graphical login

 

Xubuntu 15.10 fresh install, same problem. Lightdm-gtk-greeter still
always forces 'en' layout on USB keyboard (instead of 'fr' required
layout).

When using my laptop internal keyboard, 'fr' layout is correctly
applied. But USB attached keyboard always apply 'en' layout.

Title:
  Wrong keyboard layout by graphical login

Status in LightDM GTK+ Greeter:
  Triaged
Status in lightdm-gtk-greeter package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I have installed a new xubuntu (Ubuntu 12.04 LTS) on an empty system.
  My home directory is encrypted (checkbox by install). 
  The text console (F1, F2, F3... ) uses the german keyboard layout (correct).
  The lightdm 1.2.1-0ubuntu1 uses an english keyboard (maybe us) and there is no chooser.
  I also tried xdm 1:1.1.11-1ubuntu1 with the same result.

  
  /etc/default/keyboard
  XKBMODEL="pc105"
  XKBLAYOUT="de"
  XKBVARIANT=""
  XKBOPTIONS=""
  BACKSPACE="guess"

  /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf
  [SeatDefaults]
  greeter-session=lightdm-gtk-greeter
  user-session=xubuntu
  allow-guest=false
  [default-display]
  language=de_DE.utf8
  layout=de

  ~/.dmrc (but encrypted...)
  Language=de_DE.utf8
  Layout=de
  Session=xubuntu
