Works fine for me everywhere except Firefox. I have no problem using:
CTRL-ז
CTRL-ס
CTRL-ב
CTRL-ה
CTRL-א (gives me a new tab in Konqueror)
CTRL-ש ("Select All", works where it also works in English, such as in
Konqueror and OOo)
CTRL-נ (Bold)
CTRL-ן (Italics)
CTRL-ו (Underline)
etc. etc. etc...
I didn't test all of them but I would guess that all the Application Shortcuts
defined in the Keyboard Shortcuts section of the KDE Control Center work with
the il keyboard when Hebrew is active.
I used CTRL-ז to the copy and paste the "CTRL-" above. They work in OOo and
AbiWord too. But not in Firefox.
I'm using KDE 3.5.5 from debian (amd64) testing.
I never had to define them. I have only the Israel-il keyboard layout active
and it is defined as:
setxkbmap -model pc104 -layout us,il -variant ,lyx
in KDE alone and I didn't touch the xorg.conf. It remains:
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Generic Keyboard"
Driver "kbd"
Option "CoreKeyboard"
Option "XkbRules" "xorg"
Option "XkbModel" "pc104"
Option "XkbLayout" "us"
Yours is probably just a keyboard configuration problem.
