Three lines in tazx of slitaz-rolling.iso making no sense to me, please delete!

Hi Aleksej,

in tazx under section

# Generate or regenerate 40-Keyboard.conf

under "case "$keymap" in" there are three lines for the Slowenian (Slovenski) keyboard layout:

slovene)

            # Slovenian

            layout="si"; options="grp:alt_shift_toggle, $options" ;;

which are useless, because the keyboard layout should be "sl" but not "si", but You don't need those three lines anyway, because there is no second layout and because You don't need a second layout for the slovene.kbd like in Greek or Russian, which need the use of Latin script. I have been in Slovenia and can tell You, that they don't use Cyrillic script, they use the Latin script. Maybe Slovenian and Serbian was mixed up. The Cyrillic script is used in Serbia and their layout is different to to Russian layout. So I think, those three lines make no sense and should be deleted. Please delete those lines or tell me that I am wrong and change it in a way that it makes sense.

Looks like relevant topic:)

After testing current iso, I think we must replace [c]tazx xkb[/c] to launch it after lxpanel, not at boot-time. Don't know how, make lxpanel.sh?

Loading with kmap=ru:

Now it shows only us flag, click-nothing changed, ctrl+shift indicates 'None'

but after running [c]tazx xkb[/c] (only as root) it works well for user tux, even without locale-ru package.

Hi kubepc,

Agreed. Partially. See the package "locale-sl" files here.

Two of them:

[c]/usr/share/kbd/keymaps/i386/qwertz/slovene.map.gz
/usr/share/lxpanel/images/xkb-flags/si.png[/c]
Console keyboard layout is "slovene" (file "slovene.map.gz").

In the LXPanel's keyboard applet settings it is "si", not "sl":

We don't need LXPanel keyboard icon, but we need to set up Slovenian keyboard layout in the [c]/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/40-Keyboard.conf[/c]

[c]Section "InputClass"
    Identifier "Keyboard Defaults"
    MatchIsKeyboard "yes"
    Option "XkbLayout" "si"
    Option "XkbOptions" "compose:ralt, terminate:ctrl_alt_bksp"
EndSection[/c]
So, I think I need only to remove "grp:alt_shift_toggle, " from that three lines.

Hi Aleksej,

thank You, now I understand and agree, but found out that an exception should be made for Croatian (Hrvatski) too, because right now the XkbLayout would be "croat" and not "hr" as it should be. I would be pleased, if You remove the options for Slovenian.

Hi az_ua,

I also think, that something should be done to tazx xkb. I am not happy either, that after loading with kmap=ru, it shows only US flag, and that a click on it changes nothing, ctrl+shift indicates 'None'. My first thaught was simply to delete the section # Add or remove xkb applet from lxpanel.

Hi Aleksej,

today I have testet Your new tazx of slitaz-tools version 948 with an adapted iso. Most of it is all right for me. But for

# Deutsch Schweiz (sg)

sg-latin1)

I would also choose layout='ch',

otherwise the keyboard in SliTaz core Live seems to be US and different to SliTaz base Live, which is Swiss German like with Deutsch Schweiz (de_CH-latin1).

For

# Turkish

tr_q-latin5)

Iwould also choose layout='tr' without a variant,

otherwise the keyboard in SliTaz core Live can not produce the letter "ü" as it can in SliTaz base Live.

I know about nothing about the Japanese keyboard layout, but I think Your guess is right.
