not that I'm aware of.
OK.
I'm particularly interested in knowing if you automatically get two configured keybord layout by default or you add them manually after kpersonalizer ends (in kcontrol).
OK. I'll give you what I do step-by-step : Housekeeping for a fresh user creation : bubulle:~# deluser --remove-home test bubulle:~# rm -r /space/test bubulle:~# rm -ri /tmp/*test* User creation : bubulle:~# adduser --gecos "Test" --home /space/test test Ajout de l'utilisateur test... Adding new group `test' (1000). Adding new user `test' (1000) with group `test'. Création du répertoire personnel /space/test. Copie des fichiers depuis /etc/skel Enter new UNIX password: test Retype new UNIX password: test passwd: password updated successfully KDM restart in case of : bubulle:~# /etc/init.d/kdm restart Stopping K Display Manager: kdm. Starting K Display Manager: kdm. Note : My system is configured in French, so I roughly translate in english what I see in the windows. The KDE session : (KDM greater window) login : test password : test (Kpersonalizer starts) Step 1 : Choose your coutry : France Choose your language : Français > Next Step 2 : (touch nothing, all defaults) > Next Step 3 : (touch nothing, all defaults) > Next Step 4 (themes) : (touch nothing, all defaults) > Next Step 5 : (touch nothing, all defaults) > Finish (KDE starts, Ktip windows, Error window about /dev/dsp permission) Currently, I have a french keyboard attached. I can open a Konsole and type with the french (XFree86 default) layout. I type 'tail -f ~/.xsession-errors' in the Konsole. I would like to use two keyboard layouts, so : K menu > KDE configuration center > localisation and accessibility > keyboard layouts > check box activate keyboard layout By defaults, I have one active layout : us select us_intl in available layouts > add > confirm Now that I have more than one layouts enabled, an icon with the US flag appears in the tray that indicate the current active layout. I the same time, in .xsession-errors : kxkb: WARNING: Unable to open /tmp/kde-test/us.xkm: Aucun fichier ou r??pertoire de ce type Hmm... But, test in a new Konsole, I have the US layout. If I check if this file exists : bubulle:~# ls -al /tmp/kde-test/*.xkm -rw-r--r-- 1 test test 9016 2005-01-05 19:50 /tmp/kde-test/us.xkm OK, so the file seems to have been created immidiately after. I can now cycle on the active layout with Ctrl-Alt-K (or by clicking on the icon). When cycling on us-intl, I have the error icon and in .xsession-errors : kxkb: WARNING: Unable to open /tmp/kde-test/us_intl.xkm: Aucun fichier ou r??pertoire de ce type Error loading new keyboard description So I feel that the 'kxkb: WARNING: Unable to open...' message is normal, as the file does not exist at the first place. But the second one "Error loading new keyboard description" is not. If I check : bubulle:~# ls -al /tmp/kde-test/*.xkm -rw-r--r-- 1 test test 9016 2005-01-05 19:50 /tmp/kde-test/us.xkm I have only on file. If I add another keyboard layout, say, spanish, with the same method above and I confirm : - the icon goes on the US flag (probably because it's the first layout) - same .xsession-errors message : kxkb: WARNING: Unable to open /tmp/kde-test/us.xkm: Aucun fichier ou r??pertoire de ce type whereas the file now exists (!) If I hit Ctrl-Alt-K two times, I cycle throught us > us_intl > es and I have : - the spanish flag icon - the spanish layout as I can type the upside-down "?", for example - in .xsession-errors : kxkb: WARNING: Unable to open /tmp/kde-test/us_intl.xkm: Aucun fichier ou r??pertoire de ce type Error loading new keyboard description kxkb: WARNING: Unable to open /tmp/kde-test/es.xkm: Aucun fichier ou r??pertoire de ce type If I check /tmp : bubulle:~# ls -al /tmp/kde-test/*.xkm -rw-r--r-- 1 test test 10212 2005-01-05 20:07 /tmp/kde-test/es.xkm -rw-r--r-- 1 test test 9016 2005-01-05 20:04 /tmp/kde-test/us.xkm Well, that's all I can say for the moment :-/ I will now drive home and have lunch. I will be online on my home laptop around 23:00.
