Hi, I am a new Arch Linux user and I'm having some trouble with the keyboard distributtion which I set for GNOME.
The problem is that every time I reboot or close my session, it goes back to the default, which is the United States distribution, and I need the Spanish one.
It also reverts any changes I've made to the misc configurations, for example: Esperanto letters or Ctrl+Back+Space for killing the X.
I'm using GNOME 2.32 and I already tried to change this as root, but made no change in the problem.
Maybe I'm missing some text configuration file?
Thanks.

For keyboard layouts you probably can set it inside Gnome, but I set it on X itself.
It is explained here:
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Xo … d_settings
I prefer to set it with setxkbmap, for example for a portuguese layout:
setxkbmap pt
and have it executed on my window manager startup file.
You have a list of keymaps here: /usr/share/X11/xkb/rules/xorg.lst

I agree with Mektub. A .desktop file in $HOME/.config/autostart/ to exec "setxkbmap es" works everytime.
