English Applications

Hello,

I am using openSuSE 11.3 and LXDE.

How can I switch between British-English layout and Greek layout in LXDE?

Thanks alot.

Geia sou Leonardo,

It’s pretty straightforward. Login as root, and edit (with vim, gedit, whatever) the file
/etc/xdg/lxsession/LXDE/autostart
Add the following row to the file:
@setxkbmap -option grp:switch,grp:alt_shift_toggle,grp_led:scroll us,gr
Then, logout root and log off your LXDE session. The next time you log in, the left Alt-Shift keys will switch between Greek and US keyboards.
