+<PRE>Hi....
+
+Sorry for the delay, I've been busy with end-of-term festivals in
+my children' schools ;)...
+
+&gt;&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> - keyboard layout under Gnome got reset to English (from Spanish).
+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> Changed manually under
+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> system settings and fine again.
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
+</I>
+One addtional problem is that GDM starts with english keyboard which
+is a problem for passwords with non alpha-num chars... :).
+
+&gt;&gt;<i> Interesting. Does this new setting survive a reboot? Does the new
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> mapping work at the system level (i.e. is the layout respected in GDM)?
+</I>
+Yep, the setting survives a reboot for the user that changed it, but
+as I said above it does not change GDM settings. I did not try to do it
+with system tools, just user preferences.
+And keymap is OK in virtual consoles.
+
+&gt;&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> Do you have a /etc/vconsole.conf file?
+</I>
+Nop, I have not. I think system settings were in /etc/sysconfig/keyboard.
+
+&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> OK, so I don't really understand why it's broken. I think it's maybe a
+</I>&gt;<i> regression in that X is no longer inheriting settings from the console,
+</I>&gt;<i> but I think longer term this is a valid thing (maybe there will not be a
+</I>&gt;<i> console to inherit from in the future?)
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> So, it seems that systemd-localed will write an Xorg snippet into
+</I>&gt;<i> /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/00-keyboard.conf when the keyboard is set. Thus
+</I>&gt;<i> your setting of it via the Gnome System Settings will have written this
+</I>&gt;<i> file (can you confirm it exists?) and it will remain there for the
+</I>&gt;<i> remaining boots.
+</I>
+This file does not exist in my box, I just used user prefs to change
+the map, not sytem ones.
+
+&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> Longer term, we need to make sure the installer runs this daemon for
+</I>&gt;<i> fresh installs. And perhaps we should run it on upgrade automatically
+</I>&gt;<i> too to ensure it's written as needed.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>
+I will try to write an /etc/vconsole.conf and see if it works.
+Perhaps the fix is just to write it from /etc/syscofig/keyboard...
