I think it's maybe a +regression in that X is no longer inheriting settings from the console, +but I think longer term this is a valid thing (maybe there will not be a +console to inherit from in the future?) + +So, it seems that systemd-localed will write an Xorg snippet into +/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/00-keyboard.conf when the keyboard is set. Thus +your setting of it via the Gnome System Settings will have written this +file (can you confirm it exists?) and it will remain there for the +remaining boots. + +Longer term, we need to make sure the installer runs this daemon for +fresh installs. And perhaps we should run it on upgrade automatically +too to ensure it's written as needed. + +Cheers + +Col + + +-- + +Colin Guthrie +colin(at)mageia.org +<A HREF="http://colin.guthr.ie/">http://colin.guthr.ie/</A> + +Day Job: + Tribalogic Limited <A HREF="http://www.tribalogic.net/">http://www.tribalogic.net/</A> +Open Source: + Mageia Contributor <A HREF="http://www.mageia.org/">http://www.mageia.org/</A> + PulseAudio Hacker <A HREF="http://www.pulseaudio.org/">http://www.pulseaudio.org/</A> + Trac Hacker <A HREF="http://trac.edgewall.org/">http://trac.edgewall.org/</A> + + +</PRE> + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + +<!--endarticle--> + <HR> + <P><UL> + <!--threads--> + <LI>Previous message: <A HREF="016594.html">[Mageia-dev] ANN: For the brave. systemd v185 in cauldron updates_testing +</A></li> + <LI>Next message: <A HREF="016627.html">[Mageia-dev] ANN: For the brave. systemd v185 in cauldron updates_testing +</A></li> + <LI> <B>Messages sorted by:</B> + <a href="date.html#16625">[ date ]</a> + <a href="thread.html#16625">[ thread ]</a> + <a href="subject.html#16625">[ subject ]</a> + <a href="author.html#16625">[ author ]</a> + </LI> + </UL> + +<hr> +<a href="https://www.mageia.org/mailman/listinfo/mageia-dev">More information about the Mageia-dev +mailing list</a><br> +</body></html> |
