Bug Description

using GNOME 2.26 on Ubuntu 9.04.

I'm using two layouts : Belgian Azerty (Bel) and French Bépo (Fra). I've
unchecked the "different layout for different window". I want to use Fra nearly
all the time. I applied it to the sysem.

1) As soon as this "different window" option is unchecked, there's no way
anymore to set a default keyboard. It's logical.

2) When I start the computer, GDM is in Fra. Nice.

3) When my session starts, the keyboard indicator applet says "Fra". But the
actual keys are in Bel. *bug*

4) Clicking on the applet doesn't work at all. The text stays "Fra" and the
layout stays Bel. *bug*

5) Right clic on the applet > group > French Bépo. Now the layout is Fra. And
the applet is working again, I can change layout by clicking on it.

This means that I have to do step 5) at each logon!

6) Might be related : when checking the "different layout for different window"
box, it appears that Bel is the default layout.
