----------
Hello,

if you select braille layout, there will be something wrong. Instead of
printing braille-keys by pressing the braille-keys a-g&v and j-ö&n
no key is triggered. But if you press any other keys, the key will be
registered well.

You could easily test this by a) switching layout to braille, b) press
any key without "asdfv" and without "jklöm" (on Qwerz-Keyboard) and you
see the registered key-events. c) if you press one or more keys of
"asdfv" or "jklön" nothing will occur.

If you switch to another layout, pE. usa or german, the layout will
still work.

Bye Andreas

Can you tell an example of an application where this layout is supposed to work correctly ? Does it work in any other desktop environment?

Hey Rui,

I just confirmed the issue and reported here. I can't tell you an application where it is supposed to work.

I e-mail the original submitter already but I don't have any answer until now.

however I installed gnome-orca and it is working fine now, testing with gnome-control-center keyboard with input sources.

maybe this can be closed since I can't reproduce it anymore.

thanks
althaser
