Every time the computer is restarted, the keyboard layout seems to be set to the english keyboard layout, even though I am using another keyboard layout (DE-CH). Therefore I have to enter the password according to the english keyboard layout. Once logged in, the keyboard layout is set correctly. Linux/KDE Plasma: Kubuntu 19.04 KDE Plasma Version: 5.15.4 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.56.0 Qt Version: 5.12.2
Are you able to reproduce this in Plasma 5.17? Plasma 5.15 is not an LTS version and is longer supported.
I'm on Kubuntu and therefore seemingly stuck on an older version. Is there a way to upgrade Plasma on Ubuntu to a newer version than supposed? Why does Kubuntu come with a Plasma version that isn't supported anymore?
It was supported at the time when you installed it, but time flies. :) You're still using Kubuntu 19.04, while the latest version is 19.10, which includes a newer version of Plasma.
The issue is occurring on the newest version too.
Thanks!
How are you setting the keyboard layout?
(In reply to David Edmundson from comment #6) > How are you setting the keyboard layout? I'm not sure if I understand what you mean with "how". I have beeetting it during the installation process, or if that didn't work with the GUI settings.

A lot has changed since this bug was filed. Is it still reproducible for you in Plasma 5.25 when using the Maliit virtual keyboard?
