2012-05-07 02:28:29 Montblanc description After upgrading to Precise, X locale is defaulted to en_US regardless of system-wide and user specific options. I found out about this issue when I tried to login via the KDM greeter and it was not recognizing my password. I got pam authentication failures in the auth.log, but authorizations files were just fine. In fact, I could login from the console and within KDE itself. When I tried typing on the KDM username box, I found out that special characters were not corresponding to my it_IT layout. My password was including the special character @ that was typed as ; thus not accepting my password. I worked this around by changing password to not include any special character. I installed LightDM and the problem persisted, so I thought about an evdev bug. I posted this issue on the Kubuntu Forums at first, where you can find more information and logs [ http://www.kubuntuforums.net/showthread.php?58623-Can-t-login-via-KDM-after-upgrading-to-Precise ]. Recently, German users were experiencing the same problem [ http://forum.ubuntuusers.de/topic/kein-login-in-kdm-nach-upgrade/ ] where I found out that the only thing in common is a wireless keyboard. I bought a Logitech K800 (which uses a Unifying Receiver) when I was running Oneiric, making this the first time I upgraded my distribution with a wireless keyboard. If that happens to be the problem, It could mean that my keyboard locale was not recognized during the upgrade process. I'm attaching some configuration files and logs, please tell me if you need more information. $ lsb_release -a LSB Version: core-2.0-ia32:core-2.0-noarch:core-3.0-ia32:core-3.0-noarch:core-3.1-ia32:core-3.1-noarch:core-3.2-ia32:core-3.2-noarch:core-4.0-ia32:core-4.0-noarch Distributor ID: Ubuntu Description: Ubuntu 12.04 LTS Release: 12.04 Codename: precise $ apt-cache policy xserver-xorg xserver-xorg: Installato: 1:7.6+12ubuntu1 Candidato: 1:7.6+12ubuntu1 Tabella versione: *** 1:7.6+12ubuntu1 0 500 http://it.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ precise/main i386 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status $ apt-cache policy xserver-xorg-input-evdev xserver-xorg-input-evdev: Installato: 1:2.7.0-0ubuntu1 Candidato: 1:2.7.0-0ubuntu1 Tabella versione: *** 1:2.7.0-0ubuntu1 0 500 http://it.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ precise/main i386 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status $ apt-cache policy locales locales: Installato: 2.13+git20120306-3 Candidato: 2.13+git20120306-3 Tabella versione: *** 2.13+git20120306-3 0 500 http://it.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ precise/main i386 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status $ apt-cache policy console-data console-data: Installato: (nessuno) Candidato: 2:1.12-1 Tabella versione: 2:1.12-1 0 500 http://it.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ precise/universe i386 Packages $ apt-cache policy kdm kdm: Installato: 4:4.8.3-0ubuntu0.1~ppa2 Candidato: 4:4.8.3-0ubuntu0.1~ppa2 Tabella versione: *** 4:4.8.3-0ubuntu0.1~ppa2 0 500 http://ppa.launchpad.net/kubuntu-ppa/ppa/ubuntu/ precise/main i386 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status 4:4.8.2a-0ubuntu4 0 500 http://it.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ precise/main i386 Packages After upgrading Kubuntu Oneiric to Precise, X locale is defaulted to en_US regardless of system-wide and user-specific options.

2015-10-20 19:06:15 Jarno Suni summary X defaulting keyboard locale to US at login after upgrading distribution if a Logitech Unifying Receiver is plugged in X defaulting keyboard locale to US at login by a keyboard paired with Logitech Unifying Receiver
2016-02-01 11:18:19 Jarno Suni description After upgrading Kubuntu Oneiric to Precise, X locale is defaulted to en_US regardless of system-wide and user-specific options. I found out about this issue when I tried to login via the KDM greeter and it was not recognizing my password. I got pam authentication failures in the auth.log, but authorizations files were just fine. In fact, I could login from the console and within KDE itself. When I tried typing into the KDM username box, I found out that special characters were not corresponding to my it_IT layout. My password was including the special character @ that was typed as ; thus not accepting my password. I worked this around by changing password to not include any special character. I installed LightDM and the problem persisted, so I thought about an evdev bug. I posted this issue on the Kubuntu Forums at first, where you can find more information and logs [ http://www.kubuntuforums.net/showthread.php?58623-Can-t-login-via-KDM-after-upgrading-to-Precise ]. Recently, German users were experiencing the same problem [ http://forum.ubuntuusers.de/topic/kein-login-in-kdm-nach-upgrade/ ] where I found out that the only thing in common is a wireless keyboard. I bought a Logitech K800 (which uses a Unifying Receiver) when I was running Oneiric, making this the first time I upgraded a distribution while a wireless keyboard is connected. If that happens to be the problem, it could mean that my keyboard locale was not recognized during the upgrade process. I'm attaching some configuration files and logs, please tell me if you need more information. $ lsb_release -a LSB Version: core-2.0-ia32:core-2.0-noarch:core-3.0-ia32:core-3.0-noarch:core-3.1-ia32:core-3.1-noarch:core-3.2-ia32:core-3.2-noarch:core-4.0-ia32:core-4.0-noarch Distributor ID: Ubuntu Description: Ubuntu 12.04 LTS Release: 12.04 Codename: precise $ uname -a Linux melchior 3.2.0-24-generic-pae #38-Ubuntu SMP Tue May 1 16:40:26 UTC 2012 i686 athlon i386 GNU/Linux $ apt-cache policy xserver-xorg xserver-xorg:   Installato: 1:7.6+12ubuntu1   Candidato: 1:7.6+12ubuntu1   Tabella versione:  *** 1:7.6+12ubuntu1 0         500 http://it.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ precise/main i386 Packages         100 /var/lib/dpkg/status $ apt-cache policy xserver-xorg-input-evdev xserver-xorg-input-evdev:   Installato: 1:2.7.0-0ubuntu1   Candidato: 1:2.7.0-0ubuntu1   Tabella versione:  *** 1:2.7.0-0ubuntu1 0         500 http://it.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ precise/main i386 Packages         100 /var/lib/dpkg/status $ apt-cache policy locales locales:   Installato: 2.13+git20120306-3   Candidato: 2.13+git20120306-3   Tabella versione:  *** 2.13+git20120306-3 0         500 http://it.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ precise/main i386 Packages         100 /var/lib/dpkg/status $ apt-cache policy console-data console-data:   Installato: (nessuno)   Candidato: 2:1.12-1   Tabella versione:      2:1.12-1 0         500 http://it.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ precise/universe i386 Packages $ apt-cache policy kdm kdm:   Installato: 4:4.8.3-0ubuntu0.1~ppa2   Candidato: 4:4.8.3-0ubuntu0.1~ppa2   Tabella versione:  *** 4:4.8.3-0ubuntu0.1~ppa2 0         500 http://ppa.launchpad.net/kubuntu-ppa/ppa/ubuntu/ precise/main i386 Packages         100 /var/lib/dpkg/status      4:4.8.2a-0ubuntu4 0         500 http://it.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ precise/main i386 Packages Note: A way to circumvent this bug - at least for the login screen when using LightDM - is to add: display-setup-script=setxkbmap <layout> <variant> In /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf After upgrading Kubuntu Oneiric to Precise, X locale is defaulted to en_US regardless of system-wide and user-specific options.
