Please have a look at the following bug with a micro-HOWTO inside,
on how to enable keyboard-based switching on the dead right-windows key:

http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=84606

Note that there is an alternative way - switch "above" the KDE
by directly modifying the
       Option          "XkbLayout"     "us"
in the xorg.conf file (but you'll not have the nice KDE flag then.

If you want a more light-weight switcher (in case you want a light-weight
window manager, as opposed to KDE), there are other packages for the
switching/flag indication stuff. Most notably fbxkb.
