Comment 23 for bug 19159

i am not sure if my issue is related to this or not
i had ubuntu 6.06 with no problem, this i upgraded to 6.10 and immediately to 7.04. both upgrades weren't problem-free, but i believe problems werent related to this (6.06->6.10 failed to upgrade some packages, which i didn't needed so i uninstalled them and then it worked, 6.10->7.04 changed /dev/hdax to UUID= and it mixed partitions so it used wrong partition to boot from or as / - i had ro rewrite everything in fstab and grub back to /dev/hdax notation. but it think none of this could influence keyboard...)

i have 2 keyboard laytous, primary is Slovak QWERTZ, alternative is USA english (previous international). when i am switched to USA keboards and i try to write | or \, it writes ) and ň instead - which are symbols from slovak keyboard.

i tried some other US keyboards and it seems this problem is on all of them but USA international with dead keys. unfortunately with this keyboard when i press " or ' it does nothing but wait for another keypress so its not what i need (being programmer i need " and ' work on simple press and not with space after it)

unfortunately this computer which has problem is not one i have with me so i can't rwact immediately on possible queries, but if anyone else noticed such behavious i would like to know what can i do with it. thanks
