LY DM "@" symbol input problem

Issues & Assistance
1

Hi. I’m use ly dm to start sway. And everything was fine until last update. Now when i input password symbol “@” inputs like “2@”. And only @ symbol, all other like !, # or $ inputs without any extra numbers in front of them.
On laptop i run hyprland, not sway, and problem the same.

Sounds like a keyboard mismatch with Sway. Check it with.

grep -i “xkb|input” ~/.config/sway/config

Make sure it is us, or whatever keyboard you are using.

if it is wrong, I am not sure where it pulled the wrong keyboard layout, but I saw a post where someone forced the layout by adding the below to ~/.config/sway/config

input type:keyboard {
xkb_layout us
}

  1. “It pulled wrong kyeboard layout” started only after last update.
  2. How keyboard layout can be wrong only for a single key?
  3. Why LY even knows that sway config exists in first place?

Good points, I bet you will figure it out.

Maybe go to something else and test the shift and 2 key to see if it might be something with the keyboard.

Good luck.

Sure, with keyboards on a desktop and two laptops.
