Keyboard layout changes on logout/login in 18.10. How to prevent?












0















I have attached a new keyboard in UK layout to a 18.10 computer. Previous keyboard layout was German.



I can add the new keyboard layout in Settings -> Region & Language -> Input Sources. Clicking on the [+] plus button lets me choose English (United Kingdom) -> English (UK) -> Add. Now I can activate the keyboard layout in the layout chooser clicking on "en", and it works:




  • Shift + 2 produces @

  • Shift + 3 produces #


This matches the symbols on the physical keyboard. But the next time I log in, although "en" is still selected,




  • Shift + 2 produces "

  • Shift + 3 produces £


I understand that this is the English (US) layout instead of (UK). Switching temporarily to "de" layout and back to "en" does not help.



The only thing that I have found helps is to open Settings again, delete the
English (UK) entry, add it again, then select "en" again from the keyboard layout chooser.



How can I prevent this from happening?



This is ubuntu 18.10 with the default desktop. Initial installation on this computer was with Ubuntu 17.10, and it has since seen upgrades to 18.04 and then to 18.10.

          What finally worked was to select the Keyboard layout Endlish (United Kingdom) with the subtype English (Australian). In the keyboard layout chooser, this is now displayed as just English (Australian).

                    Image
                    27 4 $begingroup$ Write a program, given an input n , will generate all possible n-tuples using natural numbers. n=1 (1),(2),(3),(4),(5),(6)... n=2 (1,1),(1,2),(2,1),(2,2),(1,3),(3,1),(2,3),(3,2),(3,3)... n=6 (1,1,1,1,1,1) (1,1,1,1,2,1) (1,1,1,2,1,1)... The output may be in any order that does not break any other rules. The program must be written to run forever and list all applicable tuples exactly once, in theory. In reality, your program will reach your integer type's limit and crash. This is acceptable as long the program would run infinitely long if only your integer type was unlimited. Each valid tuple must be listed within finite time, if only the program were allowed to run that long. The output may, at your option, include zeroes in addition to the natural numbers. You may choos...
