Keyboard Layout - FC2


Hi!

After my installation of FC2 I can't install any keyboard layout. In "Control Center>>Regional & Accesibility>>Keyboard Layout" I enable keyboard layout but everything is empty.
How can I put there some layouts? I need it because I'm writing in 3 languages which use some special characters and on my actual US-keyboard I don't have them.

Thank You!
Boby

if you can find the appropriate keymap files you can toggle between them by using the xmodmap command. at least, it works with FC1 so i don't see why it wouldn't work in FC2. i sometimes use a dvorak keyboard, so i do this often.

don't forget to pipe your current keymap to a file if you wish to use qwerty again.

g'day
