Currently, devices are handled vial HAl in xorg 7.5, with entries in xorg.conf deprecated. > xorg.conf is deprecated because of dinamic configuration Yes, but in parts, the deprecation itself is (IMHO) somewhat flawed because there is no standard configuration in HAL concerning the default keyboard layout and options for mouse/touchpad etc other than distribution-specific HAL and PolicyKit settings. I personally find it most efficient to partly configure via xorg.conf and partly rely on the autodetection (for xorg 7.5). Otherwise, you have not much chance to influence things like AIGLX, RandR and (wrongly) detected chipsets.

It works flawlessly for me with xorg.conf. The other thing I discovered today is that if you once run setxkbmap, the switcher applet gets stuck on whatever it is on. > >>> > >>> This just came to light, so I have not had a chance to experiment further. > >>> > >>> On 02/19/2010 04:56 PM, Jürgen Hötzel wrote: > >>>> Hi PCMan, > >>>> 2009/6/7 PCMan <pcm...@gm...>: > >>>>> Hi all, > >>>>> I add a new branch named lxpanel-xkb in our svn repo. > >>>>> > >>>>> svn co https://lxde.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/lxde/branches/lxpanel-xkb > >>>>> > >>>>> It's a new applet for lxpanel which will be a keyboard layout switcher. > >>>>> The original one in lxpanel is broken, and will be removed. > >>>>> The new one will be based on libxlavier, a good library handling xkb. > >>>>> However, we're from Taiwan, and we don't know how keyboard layouts work. > >>>>> So help is needed. > >>>>> If you're a developer living in Europe or some other places requiring switching > >>>>> between different keyboard layouts, please help. > >>>> > >>>> any progress on this task?
