Hello. Installed Ubuntu Mate 24.04. But the keyboard language switching keys do not work. The super+space combination doesn't work. tell me how to fix this problem
Welcome, @MikeKhl to the community!
try left alt + left shift. It works for me for years.
Hi!
Open System > Preferences >Hardware > Keyboard
menu. Switch to the Layouts
tab and ensure that there are at least two different layouts to switch between them.
Since then click Options
button, scroll down to Switching to Anothe Layout
item and select desired key combination to be used for layout switching.
Good luck!
Just to add to that, when I went looking, the key combination was NOT checked off by default, so I did.
Also, if you have selected multiple keyboard layouts to choose from, the panel should display a widget (towards the right) showing the current selection:
For my own selections shown here:
If the keyboard is the Generic 105-key PC, the Win key (super) may not be recognized. There are different keyboard models and I don't know what the OP has. The OP has to do research and figure out which keyboard he has and test if the Win key is recognized.
Hey! I had a similar issue with Ubuntu Mate recently. What worked for me was going to System Settings > Keyboard > Shortcuts and checking the Typing or Input Sources section. Sometimes, just reassigning the language switch shortcut there does the trick. Give it a shot and see if it helps!
Thank you all very much! Found it and set it up. I will study further. And they said that Linux MATE is the same as Windows)
