Comment 5 for bug 821586

@marmuta: I tested this. Deleting and recreating the keyboard settings indeed helps, but only until the next login. So after reboot, the problem reappears.

Here is the desired output:

$ setxkbmap -query
rules: evdev
model: pc105
layout: de
$ setxkbmap -print
xkb_keymap {
 xkb_keycodes { include "evdev+aliases(qwertz)" };
 xkb_types { include "complete" };
 xkb_compat { include "complete" };
 xkb_symbols { include "pc+de+inet(evdev)" };
 xkb_geometry { include "pc(pc105)" };
};

I don’t really know which “detailed steps” I could provide. I’m not doing much besides launching onboard and typing on it.

@Francesco: In the language settings in the control center, I added a random keyboard layout, removed my original (German) layout, re-added it, and then removed the randomly added layout. A bit complicated, but only this way I could remove and re-add the keyboard layout.
