Title: cyrillic kmaps - how to use?
Post by: AITap on April 30, 2009, 03:43:51 PM

I want to type cyrillic characters.
I have read FAQ, so when I press Ctrl+Shift+Backspace and sudo loadkmap < ru.kmap, nothing happens.
After it, i press some key combination (e.g. right Ctrl for ru_ctrl-UTF-8.kmap) and i can type some letters (like à), i'm still in console; x is not rinnung. Next, i type 'startx' and get x running. Even if i press key combination, that helped me to change the layout, i can't switch it in X!
So, my questions are;
1) How to set my russian kmap properly?
2) How to switch between russian and us layouts?

I don't know how to use kmaps but I have found the way to print in russian. Virtual keyboard porusski.net.
This is the way to print in russian on line. You don't have to tape with mouse, you tape via keyboard. Простой способ печатать на русском с помощью tinycore.

I also managed to do it by installing Xorg and configuring xorg.conf. Пример печатания на русском языке в Xorg.

Очень хочеться, чтобы тиникорел линукс наконец нормально заработал! И переключался с 3 языками... Пишу с ЛинуксМинта...
Уже скачал tinicore linux 2.0, может в нем проблема решилась.

In Xorg it works. I could type in russian and switch from RU to EN. Keyboard section of /etc/X11/xorg.conf should look like this:
Section "InputDevice"
   Identifier   "Generic Keyboard"
   Driver      "kbd"
   Option      "XkbRules"   "xorg"
   Option      "XkbModel"   "pc105"
   Option      "XkbLayout"   "us,ru"
   Option      "XkbVariant"   ",winkeys"
   Option      "XkbOptions"   "grp:alt_shift_toggle,grp_led:scroll"
EndSection
For ukrainian maybe you should add ua in "us,ru" line. Or you can configure xorg.conf with xorgconfig
