Hi Colin,

Yes. I think it's totally related to the gdm setup. The point is: should 'gdm' remember what the keyboard preferences panel says or viceversa?

Anyway, this should in fact be unified somehow. Since Linux is a multi-user operative system, the gdm setup makes sense. The system doesn't know who is going to log in. The important thing is that, no matter what the user sets under the keyboard preferences, it becomes overwritten once and again.
