To be fully correct, I'll show you what I do on login (in some autostart
item):
xkbcomp $HOME/.xfree.xkb $DISPLAY
where $HOME/.xfree.xkb is:
default xkb_keymap "ua" {
xkb_keycodes { include "evdev+aliases(qwerty)" };
xkb_types { include "complete" };
xkb_compatibility { include "complete+ledscroll(group_lock)" };
xkb_symbols { include
"pc+us+ru:2+inet(evdev)+group(rctrl_toggle)+group(switch)+terminate(ctrl_alt_bksp)"
key <TLDE> { type[group2]= "ALPHABETIC",
[ grave, asciitilde ],
[ Ukrainian_ie, Ukrainian_IE ] };
key <AE12> { type[group2]= "ALPHABETIC",
[ equal, plus ],
[ Ukrainian_i, Ukrainian_I ] };
key <BKSL> { type[group2]= "ALPHABETIC",
[ backslash, bar ],
[ Ukrainian_yi, Ukrainian_YI ] };
key <AB10> { type[group2]= "ALPHABETIC",
[ slash, question ],
[ Cyrillic_io, Cyrillic_IO ] };
key <KPDL> { [ KP_Delete, KP_Decimal ],
[ KP_Delete, KP_Decimal ] };
};
};
So either add functions that will do all of that or disable intrusions
into keymap from your new switcher. Otherwise it's unusable now and I can
tell you've broken once nice applet. Don't make me hate you, please!
