Re: New ISO to test

 

Hi again Jack,

It works for me, with Swedish, se, as well as with British English, gb.

'setxkbmap -query' finds it, 'layout:  gb'.

Have you ticked the ztweaks box for setxkbmap gb? Otherwise it defaults
to 'us'.

Hi Israel,

The following command line puts it into autostart (should be one line,
but the mail program cut it into two lines. There is a space instead of
the line break: ...>ztweaks auto<...)

sed -i '/AUTOSTART/a \    <StartupCommand>ztweaks auto</StartupCommand>'
.jwmrc

Of course you can also deliver the tarball with that line in .jwmrc from
the very beginning

    <StartupCommand>ztweaks auto</StartupCommand>

Extra comment: For some reason, I cannot use the GUI to add it - it
disappears, when the window is closed. Please check that the meny 'to
add commands to autostart' works, and in that case, tell me how to use it.

Best regards
Nio
