I tried Adam's suggestion of using system-config-keyboard but that did not solve the change of keyboard issue either - eventually I went into the region and language setting and added English(UK) - I am not sure at what point I realised but in the top taskbar in Gnome3 there appeared "en" which was not there before (presumably when adding the English(UK) option) - but clicking on that then allowed me to switch to English(UK) and from that point I did have a UK keybooard mapping active. I don't know if there is a simpler way of switching to the UK keyboard but that seems awkward and user unfriendly - maybe I just missed the obvious method if there is one? -- mike c -- test mailing list test@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/test
