PCMan has added a new branch named lxpanel-xkb in the LXDE Repository.
svn co https://lxde.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/lxde/branches/lxpanel-xkb
It’s a new applet for lxpanel which will be a keyboard layout switcher. The original one in lxpanel is broken, and will be removed. The new one will be based on libxlavier, a good library handling xkb. However, we’re from Taiwan, and we don’t know how keyboard layouts work. So help is needed. If you’re a developer living in Europe or some other places requiring switching between different keyboard layouts, please help. (PCMan)
If you are interested in the development of LXDE, please also join our developers mailing list.

One response to “xkb: New Applet for LXPanel”
I’m from Bulgaria and I would like to try it, but I’m not sure it would work with lxpanel version on my system (debian lenny)
