Comment 50 for bug 264196

@Ricardo Pérez López
I'm not going to file upstream till your bug is taken care of. I think your bug is more clearly an xorg bug, where as this bug might be an xorg bug, or, it might be a gnome bug. I don't really know. The gnome people speculated that it was an xorg bug, but given that a workaround is simple a command on the cli, I'm starting to think maybe its a gnome bug, and that the gnome keyboard util just doesn't know how to work with the latest xorg? Again, I really don't know.

Since there are fairly simple workarounds and no data loss, this bug is pretty low priority (according to the bug triaging rules), and any fixes may not make it into intrepid, but will go into jaunty. Thus, I'm content to wait till after your bug is fixed, and I'm also content to wait till the beta, or at least one of the later alphas, of jaunty is released before I try to do anything else in terms of reporting on this bug.

@All
If you think any of the work around directions are unclear, or there are other work arounds, I'm willing to take care of that. I'm willing to edit the original post to have more info/accuracy.
