[Bug 288918] Re: Keyboard layout randomly switches to "US international (dead keys)"

 

I can confirm that this bug appears in Ubuntu 10.04, Lucid Lynx. Oddly
enough, I did not encounter it in 9.10. Anyway, for professional
reasons, I generally switch between three different keyboard layouts:
USA, USA International (with dead keys), and Latin American. I have
configured GNOME to change the keyboard layout when I press Shift + Caps
Lock. However, since upgrading to Lucid, the keyboard configuration will
randomly switch without me entering the key sequence. Thus far, I have
been unable to isolate a single common key sequence or action that
triggers this change reliably, although I have found that using the
mouse to select an item from a GNOME panel frequently triggers it. I
have examined the hotkey settings, and found nothing that would explain
why the layout keeps changing. As per the previous request, I am
attaching a file containing my hardware profile and X log to this
message.
