I updated my Xubuntu 12.04 xfce 4.8 to xfce 4.10 and now when I switch keyboard layouts it activates scroll lock.
How can I disable scroll lock when I switch layout?
This helps sometimes, but if not:
Read the configuration in
dconf read /org/gnome/desktop/input-sources/xkb-options
Then remove the 'grp_led:scroll'
part and write it back like so:
dconf write /org/gnome/desktop/input-sources/xkb-options "['grp:alt_shift_toggle', 'numpad:microsoft']"
Please note that tools like gnome tweek may restore the options.
Also' make sure your .profile or .bashrc do not contain settings that may restore the option..
Problem solved.
sudo -H gedit /etc/default/keyboard
change
XKBOPTIONS="grp:alt_shift_toggle,grp_led:scroll"
to
XKBOPTIONS="grp:alt_shift_toggle"
save, exit, and reboot.
