Hi,
I'm not sure about the second criteria (without any other key presses)
but I use the following configuration in KDE to have switching to hebrew
on Alt+ *LEFT* shift :
In xorg.conf I have:
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Keyboard0"
Driver "kbd"
Option "XkbLayout" "us,il"
EndSection
In KDE control panel there is:
- Hebrew layout defined (regional & accessibility -> keyboard layout).
- Of course - Make caps lock additional Control ! ;-) (keyboard layout
-> Xkb options tab)
Now, leave KDE setting for layout switching on Ctrl+Alt+k. Now logout of
KD to your console. Edit $HOME/.kde/share/config/kdeglobals and edit the
line "Switch to Next Keyboard Layout" to something like "Alt+Shift_L"
(no quotes), if only Left shift specification is enough for you. Never
tried specifying Alt_L or something like that.
Good luck,
Boaz.
