Hi Emanoil,
It is definitely a result from the patches, because as
said before, it was
working all the time in 14.1. It stopped working or better the issue
appeared after installing the last version with the patches
Not necessarily, because you are using a different key combination (due to the fact that
the latest changes made
impossible for you to set your previous combination) and therefore this opens up a lot of
possibilities for errors.
It is quite possible that the problem was always there and it didn't happen with the
previous key combination and so you
never noticed that. That is why I asked all those questions.
Michele, I reported them ("setxkbmap -query" and "setxkbmap -print")
already
in the previous posts.
I mean the output after reverting the changes. Again this is a test to see if the problem
was already there or not.
To me it seems that for some reason the layout is
being reset when
disconnecting and connecting the keyboard (after the last patches).
Yes, it looks like that.
So to collect more info, we need to compare the behavior with the same key combination
(Alt_L+Shift_L) with and without
the changes.
Likewise it would be good to compare the behavor with CTRL_L+ALT_L+<right arrow>
with and without the changes, if you
can find a way to set that key combination from command line or using kbbswitch.
I may be proven wrong, but I suspect the problem was always there but simply you never ran
into it due to the different
key combination.
Cheers
Michele
