A good point. I have a better idea: what about a user-rus package, like the german's user-de package? This package modifies the default settings to make the system be useable in german environment. > So what's the problem you have? What you do? What you expect to get? And > what you get? Проблемы: Hey, sorry, I learned to type without looking, so I always hit the wrong key using russian keyboard layout. In next days, I will hack something like a ger2rus.map keymap, which will use latin/german letters to produce russion charakters that sound similarly. Special characters like юбьэжч will be produced by pressing <modifier>-key. I still don't know which key should be the modifier. Кто подскажет? A problem: X11-keyboard doesn't work. If I disable it (XkbDisable), then the default map is loaded and I don't know how to switch the mapping.
