I want to change /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/30-keyboard.conf to include a line that tells the system to use a different file on a usb stick (say /keymaps/30-keyboard.conf) whenever it is available (usb stick is inserted), and use the default configuration specified in 30-keyboard.conf whenever it is not available.
Can someone tell me how to do this ? I assume the path to use is ~/keymaps/30-keyboard.conf and automount needs to be on, but that's about as far as I got
BTW: can I also make a 10-keyboard.conf file to do the same, but then system wide (so for terminal use, ...)

I updated my /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/30-keyboard.conf file:
| Code: |
if [ -f "~/keymaps/keymap.sh" ]; then
xkeyboard-config ~/keymaps/keymap.sh
else
Section "InputClass"
Identifier "keyboard-all"
Driver "evdev"
Option "XkbLayout" "be"
Option "XkbModel" "pc101"
Option "XkbRules" "xorg"
Option "XkbOptions" ""
Option "XkbVariant" ""
MatchIsKeyboard "on"
EndSection
fi
|
On my usb stick, I got a keymap.sh file:
| Code: |
setxkbmap -layout be
|
Is that about right ? |
