I have Czech layout and setxkbmap added to session startup dialog works
fine. So, bug has random nature probably related to some obscure X
Server setting(s). I have feeling that if I dig deep into any problem I
had with Ubuntu, I ended up at some X Server bug that is root cause of
problem, just like here. Is it really impossible for company like
Canonical to create some alliance and rewrite (and more importantly
re-design) this shitty layer that lives like cancer in between healthy
layers of kernel and Gnome/KDE? </flame>
