&gt;<i> Hi all,

</I>&gt;<i> this script gives me the Xkb layout that I need:

</I>&gt;<i> &lt;&lt;&lt;
</I>&gt;<i> #!/bin/sh
</I>&gt;<i>

</I>&gt;<i>     -variant &quot;,lyx&quot; \
</I>&gt;<i>     'us,il'
</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt;&gt;
</I>&gt;<i> 
</I>&gt;<i> Now, I have this in /etc/sysconfig/keyboard:
</I>&gt;<i> 
</I>&gt;<i> &lt;&lt;&lt;
</I>&gt;<i> XkbModel=pc105
</I>&gt;<i> XkbLayout=us,il
</I>&gt;<i> KEYBOARD=il
</I>&gt;<i> KEYTABLE=us
</I>&gt;<i> XkbOptions=compose:ralt,grp:switch,grp:alt_shift_toggle,grp_led:scroll
</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt;&gt;
</I>&gt;<i> 
</I>&gt;<i> But the compose key is not configured using this by default (on X startup).
</I>&gt;<i> I'm on Mageia Linux Cauldron (what will be Mageia 2).
</I>&gt;<i> 
</I>&gt;<i> I used to be able to define the keyboard layout using directives
</I>&gt;<i> in /etc/X11/xorg.conf but it no longer appears to work.
</I>&gt;<i> 
</I>&gt;<i> How can I define everything I need by editing /etc/sysconfig/keyboard (or
</I>&gt;<i> any other appropriate files under /etc )?
</I>&gt;<i> 
</I>
I found out a solution for that. I placed this in ~/.Xkbmap :

&lt;&lt;&lt;
-option compose:ralt,grp:switch,grp:alt_shift_toggle,grp_led:scroll
-variant ,lyx us,il
&gt;&gt;&gt;<i>
</I>
And now the keyboard is working fine. I learned about ~/.Xkbmap
in /etc/X11/xinit/fixkeyboard .

Thanks!

Regards,
