You merge setxkbmap and then be able to change keyboard layout with something like `setxkbmap cz' etc. Afaik, I don't know if there's an applet like pkg that you could merge and combine it with a panel? Is that you want?

You need a layout toggle script. Here's a simple one in bash:
Code:
#! /bin/sh

CURR_LAYOUT=$(setxkbmap -query | grep layout | cut -d ":" -f 2 | sed -e 's/ //g')
[[ $CURR_LAYOUT == "us" ]] && setxkbmap -layout cz || setxkbmap -layout us

Save it as layout_toggle, make it executable and add
Code:
Shift k   :ExecCommand /path/to/layout_toggle

in ~/.fluxbox/keys.
