A while after installing ubuntu 18.04 I was prompted to select a keyboard shortcut for switching between keyboard layouts.

I choose Alt+Shift. The results are really annoying as they render any keyboard shortcut that uses these two keys unusable (such as Alt+TAB+Shift to return to previous app).

I am not sure what is the program that controls this keyboard shortcut, as the one shown in gnome settings is Super+Space.

Is there anyway to find the responsible program?

  • For the roots of the problem see https://askubuntu.com/a/1029605/66509 and its links. In GNOME sHell we can't heel this interference. – N0rbert Sep 16 '18 at 08:39

    For me worked gnome-tweaks very well. And you also can configure other settings there. See: https://askubuntu.com/a/1029605/723091 – as5 Dec 30 '20 at 08:50

The following command will let you reconfigure your keyboard setting:

sudo dpkg-reconfigure keyboard-configuration

    This alone didn't work for me, I had to also enter gsettings reset org.gnome.desktop.input-sources xkb-options command after the above command; as is stated here: https://askubuntu.com/a/1073524/25831 – DummyBeginner Dec 10 '19 at 10:05
