Hi,
I've been noticing this since at least September (but reboot really rarely, so I always forgot to mention the problem...). My keyboard layout of choice is swiss german, and the layout is such everywhere except at the kdm login screen. I've got "vconsole.keymap=sg" in the grub command line, KEYTABLE="sg" MODEL="pc105" LAYOUT="ch" VARIANT="de" in /etc/sysconfig/keyboard, and an empty xorg.conf. AFAICT /etc/kde/kdm/* do not contain any layout related settings.
I see this both on rawhide and F18 KDE, and I seem to remember that I also noticed it on F18 Alpha Gnome before I wrecked the virtual machine.
Anyone else noticing this / any idea how to fix?
Thanks, Sandro

Doesn't fix it for me. kemap=uk, can be both wrong and right. It does appear to be an X problem on my rawhide. With on runlevel 3 login: user password works fine. (keymap, UK) startx in Term | is now a >, and other also switch (keymap, UK) It is only when "setxkbmap -rules evdev -layout gb -model pc105 -variant extd" is run, that | is once again |. On this physical keyboard | is above , next to shift-L.
I haven't tried the vconsole thing yet (can't log out right now), but also in my case the problem _only_ appears at the login screen. Everywhere else, including on VTs, the layout is correct.

It sounds like the console layout is correct and your desktop (KDE or whatever) also has the correct layout configured for your user, so I think what's missing is the systemwide X11 layout. Johann, where does that get set?

Sorry about the late reply
I fixed my login screen problems (LightDM) with "localectl set-keyboard uk"
man localectl (within F18)
