the hotkeys are always in qwerty

[Sander Deryckere]

Binary package hint: kile

I'm using an azerty keyboard, if I want to undo an action, I have to press ctrl+W instead of ctrl+Z. I guess this is because the hotkeys are always in qwerty. I know I can change this but the shortcuts should be set to the default keyboard layout.

Grtz,
Sander

Which version of kile are you using? And on which release of (k)ubuntu?

[Sander Deryckere (sanderd17)]

Kile version 2.0.83 using KDE 4.3.2 on Linux Mint Helena (same repo's as Ubuntu 9.10 and using gnome)

Hope this is enough, if you want a conf file, just say what I need to do.

Thanks,
Sander

Try to install "kate" or any other KDE program; is it the same there?

[Sander Deryckere (sanderd17)]

in kate it's just the same, if i press ctrl+z it closes (the ctrl+w command)

Thanks for reporting this bug! Your bug seems to be a problem with the KDE program itself, and not with our KDE packages. While we appreciate your issue, it would be better if it was tracked at https://bugs.kde.org, so that the KDE developers can deal with this speedily and have direct communication with you as the reporter for more effective debugging.

Thanks!

OK, thanks for helping, I'll report it there.

It was already known but there seems no activity: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=209699

I'm experiencing the same problem under gnome, with gnome terminal for example on 10.4. The main keyboard here is an azerty/be one. I personnally use a qwerty/us one. In my session, to do a control-a I need to actually press control-q. The normal layout is changed but not the one with the modifier key. Running xev I can see that the right key are received by the X server:
