Description Yan Morin 2005-04-17 21:22:19 UTC

Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.4.0)
Installed from:    RedHat RPMs
OS:                Linux

Like 
http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9063
http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9064

When you choose the "ca" keyboard (canadian multilingual), it's use the "ca_enhanced" keyboard command line.

When you choose the "ca" and "ca_enhanced", it's add only one flag keyboard in the status bar.

We have to change the keyboard with this command line:
setxkbmap -model pc105 -layout ca -variant basic

ca is the current standard (ISO-...)
ca_enhanced is the most used

Comment 1 Thiago Macieira 2005-04-17 21:44:21 UTC

Does your /etc/X11/xkb/symbols/ca file contain "hidden" in the basic variant?

Comment 2 Yan Morin 2005-04-17 22:12:01 UTC

I don't have any "hidden" word in my /etc/X11/xkb/symbols/ca file.

Comment 3 Yan Morin 2005-12-19 17:35:57 UTC

The bug only happen when I set the locale (Country/Region & language) in Control Center to "French".
With English US, the bug doesn't happen.

I now use KDE3.5.

Comment 4 Andriy Rysin 2006-03-03 05:04:56 UTC

Could you please tell which version of X you`re using and if this is still a problem. In Xorg 6.9.0 at least there`s no ca_enhanced layout only ¨ca¨ with different variants.

Comment 5 Yan Morin 2006-03-03 05:29:37 UTC

From Fedora Core 4: xorg-x11-6.8.2-37.FC4.49.2

Comment 6 Andriy Rysin 2006-03-03 05:45:33 UTC

Thanks for quick feedback, then I´d need a bit more detailed description of the problem.
1) Please attach your ~/.kde/share/config/xkbrc file
2) Please attach your /etc/X11/xkb/rules/xorg file

also as far as I understood you´re using two layouts ca and ca_enchanced and the problem is that they have the same indicator in tray?

Comment 7 Yan Morin 2006-03-03 14:46:54 UTC

Created attachment 14935 [details]
/etc/X11/xkb/rules/xorg

Comment 8 Yan Morin 2006-03-03 14:48:51 UTC

I don't have a ~/.kde/share/config/xkbrc

I'm almost sure that this bug is related to i18n() function in the source code.

Comment 9 Andriy Rysin 2006-03-03 15:14:36 UTC

sorry I meant ~/.kde/share/config/kxkbrc
