{{Keyboard layouts}} |
|||
Linux provides a multitude of keyboard layouts. OLPC is adapting them to its specific keyboard hardware. In the meantime, unmodified Linux layouts for the less urgent [[writing systems]] and [[languages]] are included with the XO, and are nearly fully functional. The differences have to do with location of a few keys, especially the modifier keys (Alt, AltGr, Control, Shift, CapsLock, Fn, Num Lock, and so on), and the language/writing system/layout-switching key. The XO does not have the Windows and Menu keys common on other keyboards. Some of their functions can be mapped to Left and Right Hand keys. The times-divide key does double duty with keyboard change options, if more than one keyboard is set up in the system configuration. For any country that uses a non-Latin writing system, the local layout and English will be preconfigured at the factory. On those XOs, the times-divide key will have an image showing the Latin letters AB and some local letter. See, for example, the [[Arabic keyboard]] image. |

|||
The team from Pentagram finalized the keyboard design for the B-Test machines. Six different versions of the keyboard are being made: Arabic, Portuguese, Spanish, Thai, Nigerian (for Hausa, Ìgbo, Yorùbá, Ẹdo, Ẹfik, Fulani, Kanuri, etc.), and US International. |
|||
=Soft keyboard layouts= |
|||
It is obvious that each typable writing system has to have its own keyboard layouts. In addition, there are numerous rearrangements of keyboards for specific languages and countries. Many languages require specific letters not used in other languages. As a result, most [[locales]] have their own keyboard layouts, in some cases several. |
|||
The following examples, from Debian Linux keyboard layouts, are all incomplete. For alphabets with upper- and lower-case, only the lower-case is shown. No attempt has been made to indicate combining diacritics and other composed characters. See the images linked from the various language names for further details. |
|||
See also [[Keyboard Files]] for an explanation of Linux keyboard definitions, and [[Debian keyboards]] for a list of keyboard layouts included in Debian Linux. Where a Debian keyboard file exists, its name is appended to the layout names below. |
|||
Setting up to be able to switch keyboard layouts currently requires editing /etc/X11/xorg.conf, as described at [[Customizing NAND images#Keyboard]]. The keyboard switching key is the times-divide key in the Latin keytops, but with a different graphic in some other keytop image sets for other alphabets.--[[User:Mokurai|Mokurai]] 09:09, 23 November 2007 (EST) |

Latin keyboards mostly fall into a few basic arrangements, with many lesser variations to accommodate special characters. The most common are |

==[http://www.language-keyboard.com/greek.htm Greek el]== |
|||
Follows various Latin layouts to some degree. There are a number of other Greek layouts, including Polytonic Greek for Classical literature. |
|||

|||

|||
; ς ε ρ τ υ θ ι ο π [ ] \ |

α σ δ φ γ η ξ κ λ '' |
|||
ζ χ ψ ω β ν μ , . / |
|||
Recently the name of the Greek layout changed from "el" to "gr" in the xkeyboard-config package, used by Xorg. The current OLPC images use the "gr" layout for Greek. |
|||
The above line allows to write in Greek only. This causes issues when typing a new URL in the browser or trying to logon to a service where the credentials are in English. A recommended setxkbmap line would look like |
|||
setxkbmap -layout "gr,us" -option "grp:alt_shift_toggle" -variant ",extended" |
|||
The default layout is Greek, the user can switch between US English with Alt-Shift, and we use the "extended" variant of Greek that supports writing the Euro sign. |
|||
Alternatively, one can modify /etc/X11/xorg.conf adding |
|||
<pre> |
|||
Option "XkbLayout" "us,gr" |
|||
Option "XkbOptions" "grp:alt_shift_toggle" |
|||
</pre> |
|||
==Cyrillic== |
|||
There are four keyboard layouts for Russian, with variants for other languages written in Cyrillic. During the Soviet period, there were more than 200 of them. Several of the newly independent states of Central Asia have changed to other alphabets, according to national preference, including Arabic, Latin, and Mongolian. (The independent former Soviet republic of Mongolia returned to Cyrillic soon thereafter. The Chinese province of Mongolia continues to use its traditional alphabet.) |

The base keyboard is QWERTY. To switch to Katakana, use the Switch Group key combination. You can set this key combination with the -option option of the setxkbmap command. For example, setxkbmap -option grp:ctrl_alt_toggle sets the Control-Alt combination for switching. |

For Korean, the most popular keyboard layout is [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Keyboard_layout#Dubeolshik%20Korean%20Hangeul 두벌식] (2beolshik). This keyboard arrangement is used in an [[Input methods|Input method]] that combines the letters into syllables. One types ㅎㅏㄴ ㄱㅡㄹ and gets 한글. The 두벌식 layout works well with US qwerty keyboards. |
