Dvorak Compatible #235

Closed DungxNguyen closed 7 years ago

DungxNguyen commented 8 years ago

Could you guy make it compatible with Dvorak layout please?

NgoHuy commented 8 years ago

I use Dvorak without issues, it's problem of ibus, not bogo, bro

DungxNguyen commented 8 years ago

How could you change the layout of keyboard to ibus-bogo from Dvorak? Usually, I use Dvorak layout and when i change to ibus-bogo, the system layout becomes Qwerty. It doesn't happen if i change from Dvorak to m17n engine.

NgoHuy commented 8 years ago

just set dvorak as system layout

DungxNguyen commented 8 years ago

How do you set it? I chose Dvorak layout when I installed the system and nothing changed then.

$: cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/10-edev.conf 

Section "InputClass" 
        Identifier "evdev keyboard catchall"
        MatchIsKeyboard "on"
        MatchDevicePath "/dev/input/event*"
        Driver "evdev"
        Option "XkbLayout" "dvorak"
        #Option "XkbVariant" "dvorak"
EndSection

This is my file:

@DungxNguyen: Does the Use system keyboard layout in ibus-setup work for you? I'm using Programmer Dvorak layout with no problem.

iBus setup dialog

DungxNguyen commented 8 years ago

I select the option. However everything is the same.

The version of ibus is 1.5.11, ibus-bogo is 0.4.

Are you using Ubuntu 15.10? If it's the case, would you mind downgrading iBus to see if the problem persists. iBus in Ubuntu 15.04+ doesn't respect system keyboard layout.

DungxNguyen commented 8 years ago

I'm using Fedora 23. As far as i know, Ibus has been integrated in to Gnome Shell for several gnome release. The problem also happens with Arch Linux. I have a workaround solution that after changing to Ibus-bogo method, run the command "setxkbmap -model pc104 -layout us -variant dvorak". Changing to ibus-bogo somehow set the layout to qwerty. However, Vietnamese m17n ibus engine has not been affected. Changing from Dvorak to m17n keeps dvorak layout.

I used Fedora and had same problem, but only on XFCE not LXDE, I don't think it's problem of bogo. Did you see my config for X11 ? :v :v

cmpitg commented 8 years ago

Yes it is a confirmed iBus problem. It has been on and off for quite a while now and I don't trust iBus developers anymore. There was a similar issue reported in ibus-unikey repository a couple of weeks ago.

All and all, I would recommend checking and trying all possible workarounds in Arch Linux's iBus wiki page. As for me, I have been using setxkbmap (setxkbmap us -variant dvp) to change my keyboard layout everytime an X session starts, which works well with iBus so far. Should you stick to this solution, you might want to have a script and make it run at startup everytime you log in.

As this is not directly related to ibus-bogo, shall we close this issue?
