Hallo, everybody!
Is it possible to have two keyboard layouts for Linux (like in Windows). I mean something quite different from latin letters e.g. cyrillic layout?
I´ve tried to edit my /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/XF86Config and create at ´Section "Keyboard"´ an option for another layout but it didn´t work.
Any ideas? [bigears]
 
try to use some applet designed for this (in gnome or kde, there are tools for that). I use wmkeys, or xmodmap for this. I also used the keyboard section in XF86Cfg, but you have to man man man man to make it working.
