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

 

A script i put in my startup applications to automate the workaround. Replace xkb:fr::fra' by your own kb if not french.
Display your actual config with "dconf read /desktop/ibus/general/preload-engines".
Also customize "set xkbmap fr".

#!/bin/sh
sleep 6
if [ -n "$(dconf read /desktop/ibus/general/preload-engines | grep eng)" ]; then
   dconf write /desktop/ibus/general/preload-engines "['xkb:fr::fra','xkb:fr:oss:fra']"
   set xkbmap fr
   sleep 0.5
   echo $(date) >> ~/TMP/bug_ibus_wa.log
   compiz --replace &
fi
