yes, exactly that's what I mean. the latin "k" has no equivalent in other languages (in terms of key code). Windows is doing this wisely since the beginning by setting the switch to ALT+SHIFT, which is language independent. I like the abbility to change things in kde, so I preffer to set it to ALT+CTRL+(richt arrow). In your case german "k" is equivalent to english "k" thus switch is working, for all people using latin. I don't know if it's working for greek or hebrew. If someone can report it would be interesting to know. regards -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
