[Bug 475280] Re: Variant keyboard layouts are numbered with a subscript instead of something more descriptive

 

The issue is that the space on the panel is quite limited to be able to show the full variant codename.
In some cases the name can be over 20 characters long ('102_qwertz_comma_nodead').

The expected workflow is to select the order in the Keyboard Preferences
(under Layouts) so that you are notified with the subscript index when
you are viewing the second layout. The second and subsequence variants
have subscripts 2, 3, and so on.

On Ubuntu 10.04 I am able to see the subscript; tried with both GBr and
Icl.

I would like to see a list of steps to reproduce the issue when the subscript is not shown. Make sure that you use the Keyboard Preferences to add the new variants. Also, show the settings with 
gconftool-2 -R /desktop/gnome/peripherals/keyboard/kbd
