[Bug 775602] [NEW] Keyboard layout switching is slow and unreliable

 

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xorg

Since the upgrade to natty, the keyboard layout switching has been slow
and unreliable. I've configured it to use caps lock and to show it on
the ScrollLock led, and in both Gnome and XFCE there is a noticeable
delay and sometimes it just doesn't switch, like the keystroke is lost.
There's no problem with the normal typing.

The issue wasn't there in 10.10.
