I'm afraid that will not work, since we need to attach an XKB mapping > Anyhow, your current code (which I have not dived into, yet) should > probably go in.

After a little of thinking I believe you could try: 1. remove all existing israelian keyboard layouts from x11drv/keyboard.c 2. create a new israelian layout (by simply editing an existing one and removing english characters) which will work in Wine after 'setxkbmap il'. 3. configure your XFree86 to have distinct "us" and "il" layouts. #3 possibly is a most difficult step. At least I don't know how to do that using standard approaches provided by XF86Config. After that, MappingNotify should really do its work and make Wine to change internal keyboard layouts and therefore HKL identifier. -- Dmitry.
