The keyboard layout switches automatically

[Ddorda]

I hope this is the right applicatin related.
The bug is that when using 2 languages or more sometimes the keyboard layouts starts becoming crazy, it changes between the languages fast.
I couldn't find any symptoms for the reason it happens.
I did notice that sometimes when i close a program or open a program (nothing specific) it stops switching.
I also noticed that when it happen, changing the language in the language applet doesn't do anything, and removing the language layout completly from Keyboard preferences doesn't work either, it keep switching.

This bug affects ALL programs when it happen, and not one specific. so for ex. if gnome-screensaver was activated while having this random event, it is impossible to do the password correctlly.

Switching from the user and logging back in does not help, but in the GDM it has no problems. however logging out from the user and logging back in does do the work.

Using Maverick Beta 32bit on Dell mini 1012 netbook, Using English and Hebrew for language layouts.

I got confirmed by another Maverick user that this happens to him too, but i'll ask him to confirm in a comment.

Yes, this bug also happens to me, but now I tried to set the keyboard preferences to set the layout for the whole system and it solved the problem for me. I use a desktop computer based on Intel P965 chipset.
