Here’s a step-by-step guide to add Persian(in my case) and English keyboard
layouts in Kubuntu and make sure they persist after reboot:
---
Step 1: Open System Settings
1. Open System Settings from the application menu.
2. Navigate to Input Devices > Keyboard.
---
Step 2: Enable Layout Configuration
1. In the Layouts tab, check the box "Configure layouts".
2. Click the Add button to add keyboard layouts.
---
Step 3: Add Persian and English Layouts
1. In the pop-up window:
Select English (US) (or your preferred English variant) from the list and click
OK.
Repeat the process to add Persian.
2. Once both layouts are added, ensure English is set as the default layout:
Select English in the list and click the Up arrow to move it to the top.
---
Step 4: Configure Layout Switching Shortcut
1. In the same Layouts tab, look for the Switching Policy section.
2. Set a shortcut to toggle between layouts. For example:
Click on the shortcut field.
Press a combination like Alt+Shift or Ctrl+Space.
---
Step 5: Apply Changes
1. Click Apply at the bottom of the window to save your settings.
2. Close the System Settings window.
---
Step 6: Ensure Persistence After Reboot
1. Open a terminal and edit the system-wide keyboard configuration file:
sudo nano /etc/default/keyboard
2. Modify the file to look like this:
XKBMODEL="pc105"
XKBLAYOUT="us,ir"
XKBVARIANT=","
XKBOPTIONS="grp:alt_shift_toggle"
.change layout maps however you want
XKBLAYOUT: Lists the layouts (us for English, ir for Persian).
XKBOPTIONS: Specifies the layout toggle shortcut (e.g., alt_shift_toggle).
3. Save and exit (Ctrl+O, Enter, Ctrl+X).
---
Step 7: Apply the New Settings
Run the following commands to apply the new configuration:
sudo dpkg-reconfigure keyboard-configuration
sudo service keyboard-setup restart
---
Step 8: Reboot and Test
1. Reboot your system to ensure the changes persist.
2. Test switching between Persian and English layouts using the shortcut you
set.
