I'm not sure that any of the above is necessary! My own need is to switch between English (GB) and Hungarian keyboard maps. So I have two little scripts #!/bin/bash # Set GB keyboard map! setxkbmap gb and #!/bin/bash # Set Hungarian keyboard map setxkbmap hu and have set them up as two buttons on Gkrellm using gkrellmlaunch - one occasion where the point and click approach is really handy! If your keyborad map is listed somewhere under /etc/X11/xkb/keymap, this should work. I find that it will flip back and forth nicely under Blackbox, but gets stuck unser fvwm......... hth Glyn -- Debian Home http://www.debian.org Debian Planet http://www.debianplanet.org/ For the children http://www.debian.org/devel/debian-jr/ In a hurry??? http://qref.sourceforge.net/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
