Description Celphor 2020-12-02 19:09:14 UTC

Since 3.36.7 reconnecting an USB keyboards resets the keyboard layout to default. This also happens when using a KVM switch.

Kernel is 5.9.11

I have two machines with this problem, both AMD64 (Rayzen and Intel i7)

Looks the same like https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mutter/+bug/1899206

Comment 1 Celphor 2020-12-04 15:37:42 UTC

also applies to 3.36.7-r1

Comment 2 Alexander Tsoy 2020-12-07 17:44:25 UTC

Backports to 3.36 branch:
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/commit/1f16a134414747ac378fb5085a99d1ccc8e7a4e2
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/commit/41434d548858e1f07da045cd3b6b0f10140fcde1

Or we can just wait for 3.36.8. 3.38.2 already has these fixes.
