Hello!
I want to type in russian in X applications under Photon. I use
XPhoton from QNX 3rd party CD.
I have the following “Keyboard” section in my X configuration file for
X 4.2 under Linux:
Section “Keyboard”
Protocol “Standard”
XkbRules “xfree86”
XkbModel “pc104”
XkbLayout “ru”
XkbOptions “grp:ctrl_shift_toggle”
EndSection
I tried to start XPhoton this way:
XPhoton -fp fontpath1,fontpath2,etc +kb -xkbdb xfree86 -xkbmap ru
I receive error, saying that “ru” keymap was not found.
How could I implement this feature to XPhoton ?
Do I need to recompile server with my params embedded ?
And suggestions will be greatly appretiated.

XPhoton doesn’t honor the XFree86 config file.
For international keyboard support in XPhoton:
download the xphoton source code:
http://mama.indstate.edu/users/liug/qnx/qnx62/src/xphoton.tgz
Then take a look at xc/programs/Xserver/hw/xphoton/sample.keys
and the ‘XPhoton -keymap filename’ option
It will be great if people can contribute those xphoton keymap files…

Thank you.
So, I can just convert photon’s russian layout definition file to
this format and use it? Is it possible to switch between two keymaps
(russian and english) ?

If I will succed with russian one, I will contirubute it.
