* What's frustrating is that I can't even ping or ssh to investigate the problem, since you need extra to access that and you can't do it without networking...

This gives the somewhat strange solution that I can switch between English and Swedish with Ctrl-Shift and between Hebrew and English with Fnc-Volume+. We'll see if I'll keep it that way.

[edit] Keyboards

  • Due to my lingual situation I have a need to write in English, Swedish, and Hebrew. I solved this in a hybrid way by installing Matan's rx-51 keymap and then giving the command: 
 setxkbmap -rules evdev -model nokiarx51 -option grp:ctrl_shift_toggle -layout us,fise

This gives the somewhat strange solution that I can switch between English and Swedish with Ctrl-Shift and between Hebrew and English with Fnc-Volume+. We'll see if I'll keep it that way.
