Hello. I'm new to AntiX. Nice feeling and fast, but I have some problem. The only way I have found to change language from English to Greek and vice versa is opening Antix Control Center => Change Keyboard Layout, keeping open the Keyboard Config Window and clicking there the language I need every time. But it's not a handy solution. Alt+Shift does nothing. What I must do? Thanks.

Welcome. If you just want to toggle the keyboard from English to Greek (like I do), then edit etc/default/keyboard to look something like this

Code: Select all

XKBMODEL="pc105"
XKBLAYOUT="us,gr"
XKBVARIANT=","
XKBOPTIONS="grp:alt_shift_toggle,terminate:ctrl_alt_bksp,grp_led:scroll"
BACKSPACE="guess"

Thanks for the quick reply, but unfortunately it didn't fix the problem. Still Alt+Shift does nothing.

I had to reboot for the change to go into effect.

You' re right. I thought that restarting session would be enough, but it didn't. Thank you.
