I see almatic
but the problem is the "Keyboard" section that you high highlighted in that picture is NOT there i've only Country/Regionial & language , Spell checker there |
can you start systemsettings from a terminal like this
systemsettings &> output.txt Then do cat output.txt | grep keyboard_layout what's the output of that ? Also check for the following files /usr/lib/kde4/kcm_keyboard_layout.so /usr/share/kde4/services/keyboard_layout.desktop |

- /usr/local/lib/kde4/ and /usr/local/share/kde4/services didnt has kcm_keyboard_layout.so or keyboard_layout.desktop but has only keyboard.desktop in /usr/local/share/kde4/services |
keyboard is a different kcm module. see here:
http://techbase.kde.org/Projects/SystemSettings If the keyboard_layout module is missing for you, you probably have an incomplete installation. How did you install kde4 ? What distribution are you using ? |
i'm using slackware 12.1
Kde4 was download , compile and install directly from source from kde.org following package are already install kdelib kdebase kdebase-runtime kdeartwork kdebase-workspace kdepimlib kdetoy kdeutil kdeplasma-addon kdetoy kdesdk kdemultimedia l10n -th (From SVN) the missing from this list was due to dependencies |
Yesterday I had the same problem, distro is slackware 12.2, you must have an additional package in your system, the problem is I forgot its name, but I remember bookmarking its dependancy, here's the link to it
http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs...iso-codes.html You can see the needed package's name when you do "cmake ." (not cmakekde!) in kdebase-workspace dir. Look at the last 20 lines, you will see recomended packages for getting additional kcm modules. Good luck! |

i;ve found it :D
there's missing component here (kdebase- workspace from SVN version) + libxklavier, 3.0 or higher: A XKB foundation library for keyboard handling software <http://freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/LibXklavier> Recommended for kxkb, the KDE keyboard map switching utility. its , strange that they ddnt showned up while the cmake was made with binary format:P |
