Hi All,
One of the big bugs in Ubuntu (and probably elsewhere) is that when a user
a) Enabled autologin (so they do not need to put username/password at the start)
b) Use some keyboard layout(s), configured in the GNOME Keyboard
settings, different from /etc/X11/xorg.conf
then, the layout details from the GNOME Keyboard settings are not activated.
Reading the thread about xkbcomp (how slow it is for X when starting up),
it makes me think that GNOME configures the keyboard layout first,
then X.Org eventually configures the layout based on what is in
/etc/X11/xorg.conf, clearing up the previous settings.
The effect is that, with autologin, the keyboard layout settings
configured in GNOME cannot be set.
Is there a way to verify whether the above happens? Is there a way to
get X not to initialise keyboard layout settings, so that to see if
the GNOME settings will actually stay?
