Thanks for answer a lot! I have arch linux, so I already have almost latest KDE build (5.9.5 currently) I want to say that at (6) there already is a keyboard layout changer icon in the corner. Also at (6) I can press CapsLock and keyboard layout switches from russian to english. I found some information about keyboard in development list: https://mail.kde.org/pipermail/plasma-devel/2017-March/067395.html But it is other that I want (I wnat to configure default keyboard layout at login screen) 09.05.2017, 07:14, "Duncan" <1i5t5.duncan@xxxxxxx>: > Дмитрий Мурзин posted on Sat, 06 May 2017 13:28:38 +0300 as excerpted: > >> Hello! >> I have two keyboard layout, english and russian. >> What I do: >> 0) Laptop is turned off >> 1) Turn on laptop >> 2) I see login screen, keyboard layout is english (it is good) >> 3) Login >> 4) Change keyboard layout to russian >> 5) I lock the screen with Ctrl+Alt+L >> 6) I see login screen, keyboard layout is russian (it is bad) >> How can I get that at (6) I have english keyboard layout? >> Thank you a lot. > >> KDE Plasma 5.9.5 > > While I'm English-only and thus don't have to, nor know how to, > deal with the problem as it currently is... > > I *do* run the live-git development versions of most of the > kde-frameworks/plasma/apps that I have installed (via the > gentoo/kde project's overlay, which includes the live-git versions). > > And I generally monitor the plasma development list, which tracks the > various plasma component review requests and the following review > discussion, before code is actually committed. > > Based on that, I can safely say that the devs are aware that the > current situation isn't ideal, and they've been working on various > tweaks to the login and lock screens, including putting a keyboard > layout changer icon in the corner.
