Hey Andreas, you actually want to have a different illume.edj file. So the fso guys created one[1] and use that. It is on the distro team's todolist to make it possible to easily replace (update-alternative) the illume.edj file with other versions (installable through the installer). Personally I hope people will be more creative than just adding a qwertz button and will play with edje to try other things as well. About the patch you posted. The sad truth is that X/freedesktop.org lacks a way to identify virtual inputmethods and this means we have no way to find out which apps might be able to send key events, let alone switching between these... So for ASU we can only instantiate one virtual keyboard and we decided to use the Qtopia keyboard. So what my patch for fso did was to make that "#if 0" compile time configurable. It was not applied upstream as raster wanted to make it runtime configurable and the patch doesn't apply anymore as this has happened. For post ASU we want to propose E_VIRTUAL_KEYBOARD_STATE (probably _NETWM_...) to freedesktop.org and want to establish the means to find out which keyboard implementations are available... i hope this helps z.
