The problem I have is that every now and then I change emacs's keyboard layout by accident. Usually it switches to US layout, some times to other layouts. It must be some combination of keys, I still haven't figured out which ones. Once it's changed I cannot fix it or I don't know how to fix it. I select the default keyboard layout or the Spanish layout on the menu, but nothing happens. I have to restart emacs every time! Any idea how I can avoid this? This is specific to emacs, other programs are not affected. I also use emacs on GNU/Linux and never had this problem. Cheers. -- Ernest
