As it happens, I ran into the same problem just yesterday. My theory is this: it does take effect, but once KDE loads after X, it also loads keyboard layouts, overriding the change. I have yet to verify this (I rarely log out or reboot), but I think if you move the line to a script in ~/.kde/env/ and add a sleep statement (with, say, 20 seconds delay) before it, it might work. Another option that might work is to disable keyboard layouts in the KDE Control Centre. -- Alex Nordstrom http://lx.n3.net/ Please do not CC me in followups; I am subscribed to debian-kde.
