VOU & Co.: Konfiguration

5. Oktober 2019 (letzte Änderung am 2. Juni 2020)

Windows

Dieser Treiber unterstützt Neo2, Aus der Neo-Welt, KOY, bone und VOU: neo2-llkh auf github.com

Er liegt im Quellcode vor und kann von jedem, der will, angepasst und kompiliert werden. Wer ihn einfach nur benutzen will, braucht nur diese beiden Dateien herunterzuladen:

Beide Dateien müssen im gleichen Ordner liegen. In der settings.ini können das gewünschte Layout sowie ein paar Optionen eingestellt werden. Der Treiber wird einfach über einen Doppelklick auf die neo-llkh.exe gestartet. Über das Symbol im Info-Bereich (unten rechts) wieder beendet werden.

Linux

Die meisten Layouts können über die Kommandozeile wie folgt aktiviert werden: 

setxkbmap de koy
Für andere Layouts koy durch z.B. neo, neo_qwertz, bone, adnw oder vou ersetzen. (Für vou müssen erst einmal die Schritte des nächsten Abschnittes durchgeführt werden.)

Zurückwechseln zu QWERTZ: 

setxkbmap de

Damit diese Layouts auch in den Systemeinstellungen (in GNOME: Einstellungen → Region und Sprache → Eingabequellen) zur Auswahl stehen, müssen sie erst sichtbar gemacht werden: 

gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.input-sources show-all-sources true

Das VOU-Layout zu XKB hinzufügen

Dafür müssen drei Dateien (mit sudo-Rechten!) ergänzt werden:

Folgendes in /usr/share/X11/xkb/symbols/level3 einfügen (z.B. nach dem xkb_symbols-Block "bksl_switch"): 

// The Quote key (while pressed) chooses the third shift level.
partial modifier_keys
xkb_symbols "quote_switch" {
  key <AC11> {
    type[Group1]="ONE_LEVEL",
    symbols[Group1] = [ ISO_Level3_Shift ]
  };
  include "level3(modifier_mapping)"
};

Folgendes in /usr/share/X11/xkb/symbols/de einfügen (z.B. nach dem xkb_symbols-Block koy): 

partial alphanumeric_keys modifier_keys keypad_keys
xkb_symbols "vou" {

    include "de(koy_base)"

Folgendes in /usr/share/X11/xkb/rules/evdev.extras.xml einfügen (z.B. nach der Variante koy): 

        <variant>
          <configItem>
            <name>vou</name>
            <description>German (VOU)</description>

        </variant>

Dann müssen die Änderungen noch verarbeitet/aktiviert werden: 

sudo dpkg-reconfigure xkb-data
