Bug Description
During Ubuntu Hardy install I selected German keyboard layout. After the first boot into Hardy the keyboard layout was US. In the keyboard control I removed the US keyboard layout and added the German keyboard layout. After a reboot the keyboard layout is again US. The keyboard control shows no entry for the US layout, German layout is selected. To change the layout back to German I have to add another German keyboad entry in the keybord control (after a reboot it is again US)

I found this entry
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Generic Keyboard"
Driver "kbd"
Option "CoreKeyboard"
Option "XkbRules" "xorg"
Option "XkbModel" "pc105"
Option "XkbLayout" "us"
EndSection
in my /etc/X11/xorg.conf and changed "XkbLayout" "us" to "XkbLayout" "de". Now it works perfektly.
