keyboard layout set only to "us" after reconnect session instead "us,ru"

Open rzateev opened this issue 8 years ago • 27 comments

Hello!

I test installation xrdp 0.9.0 last version on ubuntu 12.04 32bit (also i test xrdp 0.8.0) Client is Windows 8.

I use "us,ru" keyboard layout on both computer.

When i connect first time to server with xrdp keyboard layout works perfect.

I check it command setxkbmap

locadmin@locadmin-VirtualBox:~$ setxkbmap -print -verbose 10
 Setting verbose level to 10
 locale is C
 Applied rules from base:
 rules:      base
 model:      pc105
 layout:     us,ru
 variant:    ,
 options:    grp:alt_shift_toggle,grp:toggle
 Trying to build keymap using the following components:
 keycodes:   xfree86+aliases(qwerty)
 types:      complete
 compat:     complete
 symbols:    pc+us+inet(pc105)+ru:2+group(toggle)+group(alt_shift_toggle)
 geometry:   pc(pc105)
 xkb_keymap {
    xkb_keycodes  { include "xfree86+aliases(qwerty)"   };
    xkb_types     { include "complete"  };
    xkb_compat    { include "complete"  };
    xkb_symbols   { include "pc+us+inet(pc105)+ru:2+group(toggle)+group(alt_shift_toggle)"  };
    xkb_geometry  { include "pc(pc105)" };
 };

But when i disconnect from session and connect to a server again i cannot change layout - it only "us". I check it command setxkbmap:

locadmin@locadmin-VirtualBox:~$ setxkbmap -print -verbose 10
Setting verbose level to 10
locale is C
Applied rules from base:
rules:      base
model:      pc105
layout:     us
Trying to build keymap using the following components:
keycodes:   xfree86+aliases(qwerty)
types:      complete
compat:     complete
symbols:    pc+us+inet(pc105)
geometry:   pc(pc105)
xkb_keymap {
    xkb_keycodes  { include "xfree86+aliases(qwerty)"   };
    xkb_types     { include "complete"  };
    xkb_compat    { include "complete"  };
    xkb_symbols   { include "pc+us+inet(pc105)" };
    xkb_geometry  { include "pc(pc105)" };
};

How can i fix this?

PS. I specially test my old production server on ubuntu 12.04 32bit with version xrdp 0.6.0 - it work correctly.

Addition to the previous text: i use X11rdp backend.

rzateev avatar Feb 29 '16 10:02 rzateev

have you tried compiling from git ?

itamarjp avatar Feb 29 '16 11:02 itamarjp

Yes. I compiled it from master branch

rzateev avatar Feb 29 '16 12:02 rzateev

Two thing,

do you reproduce the issue with xorgxrdp?

run xrdp-sesman in foreground xrdp-sesman -ns and see log carefully around recconection. applying keylayout will be logged.

Like this. This is x11rdp case.

I reproduce the issue. Before reconnect to session layot was change good.

After reconnect it is only EN layout and I cannot change it.

Temprorary i FIX layot with modify file xrdp\xorgxrdp\xrdpkeyb\rdpKeyboard.c and rebuild it:

  1. I modify function rdpLoadLayout (change default options of layout and comment code when it mast be reapply with client info options ):
static int
rdpLoadLayout(rdpKeyboard *keyboard, struct xrdp_client_info *client_info)
{
    XkbRMLVOSet set;

    int keylayout = client_info->keylayout;

    LLOGLN(0, ("rdpLoadLayout: keylayout 0x%8.8x variant %s display %s",
               keylayout, client_info->variant, display));
    memset(&set, 0, sizeof(set));
    set.rules = "base";

// BEGIN-FIX
//    set.model = "pc104";
//   set.layout = "us";
//    set.variant = "";
//    set.options = "";

    set.model = "pc105";
    set.layout = "us,ru";
    set.variant = "";
    set.options = "grp:ctrl_shift_toggle";

//
 //   if (strlen(client_info->model) > 0)
 //   {
  //     set.model = client_info->model;
  //  }
  //  if (strlen(client_info->variant) > 0)
  //  {
  //     set.variant = client_info->variant;
  //  }
  //  if (strlen(client_info->layout) > 0)
  //  {
  //      set.layout = client_info->layout;
  //  }
  //  if (strlen(client_info->options) > 0)
  //  {
 //       set.options = client_info->options;
//    }
// END-FIX

    reload_xkb(keyboard->device, &set);
    reload_xkb(inputInfo.keyboard, &set);

    return 0;
}

  1. Also i modify function rdpkeybControl:
// BEGIN-FIX
//set.model = "pc104";
//set.layout = "us";
//set.variant = "";
//set.options = "";

set.model = "pc105";
set.layout = "us,ru";
set.variant = "";
set.options = "grp:ctrl_shift_toggle";
// END-FIX

After this change keyboard layout work perfectly. I try it on Xubuntu 14.04 and Ubuntu 15.10.

As I understand it , the problem is that the client come empty adjustment and as a result apply the settings that have been set by default : ie only EN layout .

I think so, too.

rdpLoadLayout: keylayout 0x00000409 variant  display 10

Your log says client has the US layout. Russian should be 0x00000419. https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc766503%28WS.10%29.aspx

Judging from your log, second or later connections are correct and first connection is somehow going wrong. It shouldn't be "us,ru". When client give xrdp server 0x00000409 layout, server keylayout always should be "us".

Again, let's see which keylayout is given from the client. Now you don't have to run xrdp-sesman in foreground. Just do tail -f /var/log/xrdp.log. You'll see the log like this. [20160308-10:54:59] [WARN ] local keymap file for 0xe0200411 found and doesn't match built in keymap, using local keymap file

I think you should specify keyboard layout in client. This is a FreeRDP example. $ xfreerdp /v:server.example.com /kbd:0x00000419 or $ xfreerdp /v:server.example.com /kbd:Russian

metalefty avatar Mar 08 '16 04:03 metalefty

Additionally, if you want to use "us,ru" layout even if "0x00000409" is given from the client, you don't need to fix the source code. Editing config files is enough.

Edit xrdp_keyboard.ini like this. This will override "us" by "us,ru".

metalefty, I tried to edit the file xrdp_keyboard.ini before, but in my case it did not work for some reason. It was the first thing I tried to correct the situation . That's why I went so far as to correct the source code - only in this case the result was correct .

rzateev avatar Mar 08 '16 05:03 rzateev

I tried again using change xrdp_keyboard.ini - no result. As before, only the English keyboard layout.

rzateev avatar Mar 08 '16 05:03 rzateev

Hmm, xrdp_keyboard.ini works for me.

I tried to disconnect & reconnect 3 different client keyboard types (us -> jp -> ru). Server keyboard changes "us,ru" -> "jp" -> "ru". This is exactly I expected.

Server session type is xorgxrdp. xrdp= cdb967c, xorgxrdp=a0add6c. xrdp_keyboard2

By the way, what about #issuecomment-193607180?

metalefty avatar Mar 08 '16 05:03 metalefty

Thanks a lot for your instructions! https://github.com/neutrinolabs/xrdp/issues/337#issuecomment-193591620 It was helpful! I use this in my script that builds xrdp to automate the process of patching:

kb_model="pc105"
kb_layout="us,ru"
kb_options="grp:alt_shift_toggle,grp_led:scroll"
sed -ri.bak "s/(set.model)[^;]+/\1 = \"$kb_model\"/;s/(set.layout)[^;]+/\1 = \"$kb_layout\"/;s/(set.options)[^;]+/\1 = \"$kb_options\"/" xorgxrdp/xrdpkeyb/rdpKeyboard.c

mr-GreyWolf avatar Mar 07 '19 18:03 mr-GreyWolf

Hi, I al so facing this same problem. On first login the keyboard is OK (which in my case, is Spanish Latin, or es-ar). On reconnect to existing session, then the keyboards is US.

Any ideas of how to fix this? The only way that works is to close the session.

PD: in my case, I am accessing from Windows 10 to Ubuntu 18.04.

Thanks in advance.

gusarg81 avatar Nov 19 '19 18:11 gusarg81

Simple solution As metalefty said Add in /etc/xrdp/xrdp_keyboard.ini

-rdp_layout_us=us +rdp_layout_us=us,ru

and reconnect

sirdemin avatar Jan 11 '20 21:01 sirdemin

Same applies for es layout?

gusarg81 avatar Jan 13 '20 12:01 gusarg81

I had a similar problem: Ubuntu server running xrdp and Win10 client with japaneese layout. Every time I reconnected to a session, only japaneese layout was available. [20201006-20:07:53] [INFO ] Cannot find keymap file /etc/xrdp/km-e0010411.ini [20201006-20:07:53] [INFO ] Loading keymap file /etc/xrdp/km-00000411.ini [20201006-20:07:53] [WARN ] local keymap file for 0xe0010411 found and doesn't m atch built in keymap, using local keymap file Managed to solve the problem (following metalefty's instructions) by changing "rdp_layout_jp=jp" to "rdp_layout_jp=us,ru" in xrdp_keyboard.ini. It works now, although the solution seems somewhat strange to me.

andvary avatar Oct 06 '20 15:10 andvary

In my case xrdp only reset to only us layout if previous session was closed unexpectedly (probably because of the network error/loosing network connection).

The normal reconnects (i.e. initiated via closing the RDP client (default mstsc.exe) or ending the seance on the remote machine), that happened before the error occurs, works fine and I always get my "us,ru" layout, although I didn't touch the /etc/xrdp/xrdp_keyboard.ini. After the error the normal reconnects does not restore status quo (but maybe this is because I always tried to reconnect instantly after the error, I didn't try to wait some time and reconnect after that).

The situation is normalized after I reboot my remote Ubuntu machine.

My `/etc/xrdp/xrdp_keyboard.ini` for the reference

; How this file works:
;   1. load the file and scan each section to find matching "keyboard_type"
;      and "keyboard_subtype" based on the values received from the client.
;      If not found, then jump to default section.
;   2. in the selected section, look for "rdp_layouts" and "layouts_map".
;      Based on the "keylayout" value from the client, find the right x11
;      layout value.
;   3. model/variant are inferred based on the "keyboard_type" and
;      "keyboard_subtype", but they can be overridden.

Is there any details that I can see in the xrdp logs? For example, what layout values client was send (keyboard_type and keyboard_subtype mentioned in the xrdp_keyboard.ini)? And what the marker of the new remote session in the logs (i.e. how I can understand that this log entries from the one remote session and the other from another)?

Simple solution As metalefty said Add in /etc/xrdp/xrdp_keyboard.ini

-rdp_layout_us=us +rdp_layout_us=us,ru

and reconnect

Privet! This adds layout, but i still miss the keyboard shortcut to switch between it.

What I need to have eg (setxkbmap -print -verbose 10): xkb_symbols { include "pc+us+ru:2+group(ctrl_shift_toggle)" };

What I had just after reconnect: xkb_symbols { include "pc+us" };

What i have after i changed +rdp_layout_us=us,ru xkb_symbols { include "pc+us+ru:2" };

How to add shortcut to switch layouts? Thnx

I encountered exactly the same issue on ubuntu 22 & xrdp 0.9.17 My local keyboard is be. After desktop start, I can connect to the xrdp and have be keyboard. When I disconnect & reconnect, it's us keyboard

I solved it by this https://c-nergy.be/blog/?p=17223 (my thanx go out to this guy) ... so setting this in /etc/xrdp/xrdp_keyboard.ini (you have to check in the xrdp.log which is the right keyb code)

;rdp_layout_be=0x00000813
rdp_layout_be=0x0000080c

Some details:

After first & second connect ...

ct@RAconsole:~$ setxkbmap -print
xkb_keymap {
	xkb_keycodes  { include "xfree86+aliases(azerty)"	};
	xkb_types     { include "complete"	};
	xkb_compat    { include "complete"	};
	xkb_symbols   { include "pc+be+us:2+level3(ralt_switch)"	};
	xkb_geometry  { include "pc(pc104)"	};
};
ct@RAconsole:~$ 
ct@RAconsole:~$ 
ct@RAconsole:~$ setxkbmap -print
xkb_keymap {
	xkb_keycodes  { include "xfree86+aliases(qwerty)"	};
	xkb_types     { include "complete"	};
	xkb_compat    { include "complete"	};
	xkb_symbols   { include "pc+us"	};
	xkb_geometry  { include "pc(pc104)"	};
};

After solving, restarting server, it shows this at second connect:

ct@RAconsole:~$ setxkbmap -print
xkb_keymap {
	xkb_keycodes  { include "xfree86+aliases(azerty)"	};
	xkb_types     { include "complete"	};
	xkb_compat    { include "complete"	};
	xkb_symbols   { include "pc+be"	};
	xkb_geometry  { include "pc(pc104)"	};
};

Before applying the solution, here is the xrdp.log after server restart, disconnect & reconnect. I echoed some lines in between to make it more clear.

This is a very strange issue, to solve which you have to resort to various hacks, although in the 21st century such things should, in my opinion, work out of the box.

For those who, like me, will face this problem, the solution is simple, but not obvious. Just making some adjustments to file xrdp_keyboard.ini:

$ sudoedit /etc/xrdp/xrdp_keyboard.ini
[default_rdp_layouts]
rdp_layout_none=0x00000000
rdp_layout_us=0x00000409
rdp_layout_us_pd=0xa0000409
rdp_layout_ru=0x00000419

[default_layouts_map]
rdp_layout_none=us,ru
rdp_layout_us=us,ru
rdp_layout_us_pd=us,ru
rdp_layout_ru=us,ru

[rdp_keyboard_ru]
keyboard_type=4
keyboard_subtype=1
options=grp:ctrl_shift_toggle
rdp_layouts=default_rdp_layouts
layouts_map=default_layouts_map

After these corrections, switching layouts will work even at the first connection, even at next ones. The key difference from the previous tips is setting layout: rdp_layout_none=0x00000000. I use Royal TSX to connect via RDP, and by default it does not transmit keyboard layout.

For me, the main oddity is that even if you do not make any changes in the xrdp_keyboard.ini file and select any exotic keyboard layout in the connection settings, for example 0x00000435 (Zulu (South Africa)), when you connect to RDP for the first time, everything will work perfectly, as it is configured in Xorg:

wakko@acmenet:~$ setxkbmap -print
xkb_keymap {
	xkb_keycodes  { include "xfree86+aliases(qwerty)"	};
	xkb_types     { include "complete"	};
	xkb_compat    { include "complete+ledscroll(group_lock)"	};
	xkb_symbols   { include "pc+us+ru:2+group(ctrl_shift_toggle)"	};
	xkb_geometry  { include "pc(pc104)"	};
};

But with any next connections, the second keyboard layout disappears.

wakko@acmenet:~$ setxkbmap -print
xkb_keymap {
	xkb_keycodes  { include "xfree86+aliases(qwerty)"	};
	xkb_types     { include "complete"	};
	xkb_compat    { include "complete+ledscroll(group_lock)"	};
	xkb_symbols   { include "pc+us+group(ctrl_shift_toggle)"	};
	xkb_geometry  { include "pc(pc104)"	};
};

Although the layout switching indicator is visible in the tray, and it even switches by Ctrl+Shift.
