ok, i also solved (actually a workaround) the hardware keyboard issue. as i am not able to choose a hebrew keyboard, i choosed an arabic one instead. the i edited the files installed from matan's hebrew-keymap and replaced "he" with "ar" in both files (/usr/share/X11/xkb/symbols/nokia_vndr/rx-51-h and /etc/X11/Xsession.post/98hebrew-keymap ).
now i can swap layouts with ctrl-space. I am still looking for a way to add an option to choose keyboard hebrew+english (and not use the arabic+english one) this will be also usefull for my friend who wants hebrew+russian+english ... erez.
