In the forums I found some posts on this subject which lead to looking |
31 |
at Bugzilla reports. On my wife's machine I tried downgrading |
32 |
libxklavier to version 3.6. It fixed the problem on her machine. There |
33 |
were also reports of someone doing some changes using gnome's config |
34 |
editor and fixing it that way. |
