      Hi!

      When installing antiX I added a Swedish and US keyboard layout. I get the little flag in the toolbar (X11 Keyboard switcher) that I can click on to switch between US/SE. Is there a keyboard shortcut for switching? I’m used to being able to hit alt+shift to toggle between layouts. I googled and a solution that appears to work is to create /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/00-keyboard.conf with the following lines

      Section “InputClass”
      Identifier “system-keyboard”
      MatchIsKeyboard “on”
      Option “XkbLayout” “se,us”
      Option “XkbModel” “pc105”
      Option “XkbOptions” “grp:alt_shift_toggle”
      EndSection

      I just don’t understand where antiX during the installation put these options? I can’t find any references to SE/US keyboard anywhere in the X11 directory.

      Any help appreciated!

        antiX with runit - leaner and meaner.
