Description Kostya 2006-01-13 14:02:55 UTC 
Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.5.0)
Installed from:    Debian testing/unstable Packages
Compiler:          gcc version 4.0.3 
OS:                Linux

I've 2 layots: 
us (variant basic) and ru (variant winkeys)
The Switching Policy is Application

When I'm switching between windows (applications) which have different layots then I get problem. When I come back to previous application with ru(winkeys)-layot I get ru layot but not WINKEYS variant. So, in tray it still shows hint like Winkeys but actually I have probably basic variant. Therefore every time when I get back I need to switch layots 2 times just to have a right variant

Unfortunately, in KDE 3.5.1 the problem is still the same :-(

I confirm this bug.

I am currently working on refactoring kxkb source greately which should fix a lot of bugs. I hope my changes will make into 3.5.2.

We'll keep this bug updated.

SVN commit 509665 by rysin:

- refactoring kxkb sources to more modular structure
- reintroducing feature to allow switching same layouts with different variants
- fixing couple of small problems (like X calls resulting in BadWindow error)
- optimizing caching of precompiled layouts (no reopening the file - just rewinding)
	better optimization could be done by caching in memory
GUI: add column 'Variant' in layout list, adding '<default>' to list of variants

I have the same problem using kxkb. Now I'm using kkbswitch for changing layouts (xorg.conf must be configured).
