Description Forgotten User DbAFyTVGEb 2016-12-09 11:05:11 UTC

It seems that setting the system keyboard layout to Norwegian leads to Dvorak layout being selected on the LUKS passhprase screen during boot. This happens both when selecting Norwegian keyboard layout on a fresh install and when selecting Norwegian as system keyboard layout through YaST.

I recieved a tip on IRC from a helpful user that the problem is likely connected to kbd-legacy containing two different no.map.gz files. One in the dvorak folder and one in the qwerty folder.

To reproduce:
* Have a system that requires a LUKS passphrase on boot.
* Set system keyboard layout to Norwegian.
* Attempt to enter passphrase with keys as on a QWERTY Norwegian layout (almost the same as most other 105-key layouts).
* Actually log in by typing using a Dvorak layout.

Adding bugowner of kbd to cc.

imho we should probably just nuke all of norwegian layouts from the legacy package, they serve no purpose anymore.
What we have in "new" kdb is far superior.

Adding co-maintainers as well.

Yes, it is possible that it picks bad keymap (or exactly not bad, just unexpected).

kbd changed its directory layout. We either need to define expected search path, or always use qwerty/no etc.

Probably related with bug 1012230.

Tha kbd-legacy has been cleaned up (and deleted) in the meantime. So this is probably fixed.
