Hi,

I just fresh install Deepn 25.1.0 on a Lenovo T570. With version 25.0.1 all work fine. but now with this new version, i have several problem :

I use my system in French language, but :

Keybord :

  • Despite setting the keyboard to French, the English keyboard is very frequently selected as the default. I change it, but every time I reboot, it switches back to English instead of French.
  • The user password, despite a French keyboard, takes into account an English keyboard.

Deepin control center :

  • In version 25.0.1, it was properly translated into French for my language. With version 25.1.0 (the latest), some sections are in French and other menus are in English.

I did a bit of research on this error. It seems to be a common Linux issue that pops up from time to time and isn’t a Deepin Linux–specific problem. I’d recommend using the Firefox browser — that should resolve about 99% of the issues you’re running into.

Thanks for feedback! For the translation issue, if you are in the Deepin Translation Telegram group, you can reach us here so we can look into it. It's known that some translation strings are lost due to string context change and Transifex platform behavior (that we cannot control), feel free to join the Telegram group (if not joined yet) so we can discuss about it.

In Deepin 25.1.0, the keyboard layout is set to English by fcitx5 default.
This is an issue caused by Deepin's Fcitx5 setting of layout.
(Deepin's Fcitx5 setting is a separate setting from the system layout.)

So ,
1.Set it first and then setting keyboard layout of French keyboard .
2.please refer to the following website and correct it to match your country code setting of fcitx5.

https://www.satlab-gineiden.com/pc-soft/deepin-25-1-0_keyboard_layout.html/2

Edit of .config/fcitx5/config and .config/fcitx5/profile something...
Default layout =fr , Items related to input L.ayout = fr or us ...
(French=fr?I don't know...)
Don't install fcitx5-mozc.

The content can be translated into English, or you can try using Google's page translation tool.
I hope this solves the problem, but I apologize if it doesn't.

thank you for your message. I did some research and indeed there is a bug with fcitx. I managed to change the language to French and uninstalled fcitx, and everything works.
