In KDE 3.5.10, I can't switch keyboard layouts with Alt+Shift even
though that option is enabled in the control center:
Regional Accessibility-Keyboard Layout
-Xkb Option-Layout Switching-[x] Alt+Shift change layout.
The generated Command is:
setxkbmap -option grp:alt_shift_toggle
It works fine in KDE 4.1.3. It even generates the same Command.
Furthermore, loading the KDE 4 keyboard layout applet in KDE 3 works and
I can switch with Alt+Shift. The KDE 3 one doesn't. What am I missing?
I can't directly answer the KDE related question, but I do it like this in
my /etc/X11/xorg.conf and it works fine either in Fluxbox, or in KDE (with
Fbx as the WM):
Section InputDevice
Option XkbLayout gb,de
Option XkbOptions grp:alt_shift_toggle,grp_led:scroll,compose:menu
HTH.
