Languages
Hallo!! :newbie:
I have install SuSe Linux 9.2 with KDE enviroment. My problem is that I didn't manage to find how I can change Languages (from English to Greek and from Greek to English)with a short key (e.g alt+shift like in windows) What can I do?? (Thanks for your time and sorry for my English level!!) |
There is an excellent program called KKBSwitch. It is used to change the languages like in your case.
http://kkbswitch.sourceforge.net/ I don't remember how to set up a hotkey for this as I have now moved to GNOME. |
Welcome to LQ. You can toggle between languages using the following in the keyboard section of your xorg.conf:
Code:
Option "XkbLayout" "us,el" Code:
Option "XkbLayout" "us+el" |
:study: I tried both "us,el" and "us+el" but the language steal is not able to change. Accidentally, I found out that language can change only from US to EL by pressing ctrl+alt+K . I don't know why this happens! Now, my code in the keyboard section of xorg.conf is:
Section "InputDevice" Driver "kbd" Identifier "Keyboard[0]" Option "Protocol" "Standard" Option "XkbLayout" "us,el" Option "XkbModel" "pc104" Option "XkbOptions" "grp:alt_shift_toggle" Option "XkbRules" "xfree86" EndSection Can you see something wrong?? :confused: |

I disabled the KDE language selection and restarted my pc but still Alt+Shift doesn't works!!

It should work. Try to change: Option "XkbRules" "xfree86" with: Option "XkbRules" "xorg", because I think Suse uses X.org, although they are both compatible. If that does not work, take a look at www.linux.gr at the left column (greek in Linux) to see if you have some other issues, perhaps a locale problem or something.
