Description Aleksey Kontsevich 2013-03-02 19:10:55 UTC 
Keyboard indicator disappears in all  KDE versions 4.7.x - 4.9.5. Sometimes after screensaver, sometimes after login (need to restart session to enable it again). And When such situation happens icons styles in tray changes also - boring bug so many years.

Reproducible: Always
Comment 1 Christoph Feck 2013-03-04 01:00:33 UTC 
Which keyboard indicator do you mean? Language/Layout? Or Caps Lock indicator?
Comment 2 Aleksey Kontsevich 2013-03-04 01:11:54 UTC 
language
Comment 3 Andriy Rysin 2013-03-04 12:26:16 UTC 
could you please attach your kxkbrc, .xsession-errors, and Xorg.0.log files right after this happens?

Comment 12 Andriy Rysin 2013-03-04 16:34:10 UTC 
so icons dissapear completely  or they just get hidden? are there more icons if you click triangle icon on the right?
Comment 13 Aleksey Kontsevich 2013-03-04 22:23:32 UTC 
Completely, and no kxkb in process list. It crashes and icons style (for example klipper) is changed.
Comment 14 Andriy Rysin 2013-03-07 02:59:26 UTC 
There's no kxkb process in kde, keyboard layouts are controlled by kded daemon module. I looked at the logs and I don't see anything related to keyboard layouts that make them disappear (especially I don't see any crash there). Also keyboard layouts would not affect other icons style for sure.

I am reassigning this to general kde product as I would not be able to help here.

I'm experiencing similar problem in Arch Linux. When i enable language layout indicator from KDE SystemSettings 'Input Devices' module, it dissapears from tray on KDE restart. I'm on KDE 4.12 and it happened across several previous versions.

Works fine for me on 4.10.5. Think this is some kind of regression bug which migrates from one major version to another.

Dear Bug Submitter,

This bug has been stagnant for a long time. Could you help us out and re-test if the bug is valid in the latest version? I am setting the status to NEEDSINFO pending your response, please change the Status back to REPORTED when you respond.

Thank you for helping us make KDE software even better for everyone!
