Wrong keyboard layout

(1/2) > >>

Roman Boreiyko:
 In i3wm I inserted into the config
#i3wm #lang #ruu

--- Code: ---exec_always "setxkbmap -model pc104 -layout us,ru -variant ,ruu, -option grp:alt_shift_toggle,lv3:ralt_switch"
--- End code ---

to use the Russian-Ukrainian layout
so that when I hold down the right alt I can type letters from the Ukrainian alphabet

how to do it...  in lite? xfce?

Is this the key sequence you're trying?

If I'm looking at the correct user manual for your laptop

Press and hold the [Fn] key and press the Num Lock to toggle the keypad on & off

Thanks a lot, I had the same problem.

@Philip
You're welcome. Happy to hear things are working now. If one day you find yourself with a little extra time please come back and post the fix so others may use it in the future.

Scott,

thanks for reply. actually, i managed to solve my keyboard problem by doing something with the number lock key. (also, in the log in, i configure something like "do not auto release number lock key") Forgot what I did exactly but yes, the number lock key was the culprit and for some reasons, it automatically stayed "lock" after the installation. Now, it is okay and I am happy using Linux Lite 2. Thanks.
