I can't get my keyboard settings to persist.

#1 Post by zoroman »

When I change my keyboard settings to Latin American Spanish, it only works for a while or sometimes, however when I check the settings it shows changed but it works as it was before.

Hi,

The keyboard needs to be set for Enlightenment Desktop Environment specifically (In addition the the system keyboard)... Go to: Menu-->Settings-->Settings Panel-->Input-->Keyboard

*Note it seems you may need to add your new keyboard layout and then remove the existing US English one for it remain set..

I am working on an updated ISO with the keyboard settings moved to the main panel..
