Hi!

I have this exact same problem http://ask.metafilter.com/86894/Fast-user-switching-a-pain-with-a-Mac-Mini!

Does anyone have any ideas about a scripting workaround?

Thanks!

how about:

a script that runs on fast-user-switch and changes the global input language
or
a script that runs every 30s and sets the global input language?

Hi,

¢ enable root user
¢ log in as root
¢ run /System/Library/CoreServices/Language Chooser.app/
¢ choose the language you want
¢ log out
¢ disable root user

Hi,

This seemed too good to be true - I think it is.

This utility seems to only change the display language and offers no facility to change the input language to a custom keyboard layout.

Please correct me if I’m wrong.

Any further thoughts?

Have you tried to check “Show Input Menu in login window”
in System Preferences > Accounts > Login Options
