Re: Decimal separator on numpad set to "." instead of being changed with layout
It is a bug on all systems. I think these guys can help: https://github.com/freedesktop/xkeyboard-config The include... line in cz file works even when in the "basic" statement (line 67). Czech (QWERTY) includes Czech "basic" so some changes in "basic" will affect Czech...

Re: Decimal separator on numpad set to "." instead of being changed with layout
It is still not clear why changes in Czech layouts affect English (US) on your computer. Maybe remapping Czech (QWERTY) and English (US) will help. In file /usr/share/X11/xkb/symbols/cz add line include "kpdl(comma)" below line 98: key <AE10> { [ eacute, 0, parenright, dead_doubleacute ] }...

Re: Decimal separator on numpad set to "." instead of being changed with layout
The command changes only basic Czech layout. I tested it on different computers with LM 19.3 Cinnamon, LM 20 Cinnamon and LM 20.1 Cinnamon. The result is always the same: Czech layout using comma, English (US) using period. Try it on another computer with different keyboard model. If you have the sa...

Re: Decimal separator on numpad set to "." instead of being changed with layout
The command works correctly. Try it on a fresh installation or Live USB (logout instead of reboot).
If you want to reverse changes made by the command reinstall

Upgrading from LM 19.3 to LM 20 is not recommended because of problems like yours. Try this solution: Turn on XIM: Menu > Input method > Input method framework > XIM Create a hidden file named .XCompose in your home directory ( ~/.XCompose ), which contains: include "%L" <dead_acute> <C> :...

Re: How To Remap A key to Caps Lock key?
Yes, just reinstall
Fresh installation of recent version of the system wouldn't be a bad idea because your Mint doesn't work as it should and support for 18.2 version will end in five months anyway.

Re: How can LibreOffice keyboard automatically combine punctuation marks + letters?
I would like to have an instant classical greek alphabet. The letters have many different diacritics that determine the meaning of the word. I will test the possibilities of the standard greek keyboard lay outs included in LM 19.3. Good strategy. First find keyboard layout closest to what you want ...
