Hello,

Thanks for the bug report. Adding ubuntu-desktop-installer.

Subiquity supports configuring the "toggle" key binding. That said there is no default key binding for it.

For the server installer, the UI shows a dialog to configure the key binding when a non-latin layout it selected. But it looks like this dialog is not there on the desktop UI.

The following API call can tell if a given keyboard layout requires a toggle:

GET a/keyboard/needs_toggle?layout_code=...&variant_code=...

Non-ASCII characters _are_ supported in subiquity. I quickly tested in the server installer and I could login using greek characters after install + reboot. I am going to test with the desktop installer as well.

Update: I confirm that after finishing a desktop install (using a greek password), I can't authenticate ..

Thanks,
Olivier
