Thanks for reporting.

Please report this bug upstream to the keepassx developers and include an url to the bug report here.

This way we can easily follow the progress.

Thanks.

It's reported to upstream already multiple times:
- http://sourceforge.net/p/keepassx/bugs/257/
- http://sourceforge.net/p/keepassx/bugs/269/
- http://sourceforge.net/p/keepassx/bugs/306/
- http://sourceforge.net/p/keepassx/bugs/336/
- http://sourceforge.net/p/keepassx/bugs/360/
- http://sourceforge.net/p/keepassx/bugs/416/

And to downstream also:
Debian report: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=714357
Fedora report: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=896192
Ubuntu report: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/keepassx/+bug/891048

An easy workaround is to run the 'setxkbmap <your keyboard map>' command every time when you log in, e.g.:
$ setxkbmap hu

Since upstream doesn't take care about this bug, and distributions can't fix the problem, we can't do anything. I'm closing this task now, but if you found a proper fix, feel free to request to reopen it.
