Missing setxkbmap on Tinycore 11

[a.dester]

Hello everybody, this is my first post.
I am unable to find "setxkbmap" command to change X keyboard layout at runtime on Tinycore 11 for RPi.
Previously I run TC version 7 and setxkbmap was included in Xorg-7.7-bin.tcz package.
Do you know if it is now located somewhere else?

Thank you
Kind regards

Hi a.dester
Welcome to the forum.

It appears TC7 was the last version that had  setxkbmap.

Hi a.dester
Will  kmaps  do what you need:

Hi a.dester
If you look here:
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Xorg/Keyboard_configuration#Using_setxkbmap
The section labeled  "Using X configuration files"  appears to show an alternative method to  setxkbmap.

Hi Rich,
thank you.
I'm already using kmaps.tcz to change keyboard mapping in busybox shell.
The point is that I can't change the keyboard mapping in Xorg at runtime.
Modifying the X config file as explained at https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Xorg/Keyboard_configuration#Using_setxkbmap is working correctly (and I'm already using it), but doesn't allow to do it while X is running.

Hi a.dester
Attached is a script to build and package  setxkbmap.  Download the script into a work directory, then:

Code: [Select]

chmod 775 build_setxkbmap.sh
./build_setxkbmap.sh
When it completes, check  package/submitqc.txt  for errors. If there are no errors, then copy the  setxkbmap.tcz  and  setxkbmap.tcz.dep
files in that same directory to your  tce  directory. Then:

Code: [Select]

tce-load -i setxkbmapand try it out. If it looks OK, you can submit the 2  .tar.gz  files in the work directory to the repository.
