Just upgraded from 10.04 to 10.10, and the keyboard indicator applet no longer displays the two-letter country code for the active layout.
This is terrible. Is this the default behaviour? Anyone using two layouts can't tell which language they're in.
I can't seem to find the setting for this, it used to be in the preferences for keyboard layout.
Update 1: In case this wasn't obvious - I have two keyboard layouts - English and Hebrew. I just upgraded form 10.04, where the country code (USA/IL) was displayed, overlaid on the flag.
Now all I get is a vague keyboard icon, and can't find the settings for this.
Update 2: this seems to be a bug that people have been reporting since Lucid, and is now back in Maverick
