The laptop I am using was sold in latinamerica and it has a Spanish keyboard. I however prefer my software in English so I am trying Ubuntu 19 in English. I cannot get the proper keyboard configuration to work. I used the settings to change the regional settings and selected Spanish as language then several of the Spanish variations underneath. According to the keyboard displayed by the eye icon, it should match my physical keyboard BUT when I start typing things that are not characters it just comes up with some other symbols and NOT those that are on the key or on the displayed keyboard. It is very frustrating to use the keyboard this way. BTW after adding the Spanish keyboard i moved that configuration up so that it appeared first in the list of keyboard configurations.
I tried plain Spanish, Spanish with no dead keys, Spanish Win, etc. all the same problem. I do not want to install Ubuntu in Spanish.
