It doesn`t work to me
 
I've tried to do this, but it didn't work.

I have the Slackware 9.0 and a ABNT2 keyboard,

I decompressed an ABNT2 map.gz and reading the .map,
this file has the CCedilha key (code 38 with keymaps), that's ok.

But running loadkeys <kbmap> nothing changes.



Thanks,

PJota

Try loading the keymap without uncompress it...

I have a french keymap, and loadkeys /usr/share/keymaps/i386/azerty/fr-latin1.map.gz works fine :)

What is a hotkey to switch between languages?

In console? There's none.

And back to the question, take a look at /etc/rc.d/rc.keymap.

I was about to answer when I realized that this thread is almost 9 years old...

Even MS-DOS has a hotkey to switch between languages. But Linux console hasn't?
May be hotkey is right Ctrl-Alt?
