[SOLVED] Keyboard layout switching

Hello,
I have a problem with keyboard layout switching key.
Just notice it not working anymore...

here is my key setting in xorg.conf

Section "InputDevice"
    Identifier  "Keyboard"
    Driver      "kbd"
    Option      "XkbLayout"  "us,th"
    Option      "XkbOptions" "grp:alt_shift_toggle"
EndSectionp

extra p?

Seriously though, it looks fine to me. There's a wiki article http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Con … youts_in_X
I'd try adding
Option "XkbRules" "xorg"
although that could be automatic.

Re: [SOLVED] Keyboard layout switching

Solved... by remove the xf86-input-evdev package...
I install it to get rid of the x11 error message.

Failed to load module evdev (module does not exist, 0)

Switching key is now working again... I think I'll leave that error alone.

btw, Is it bug or do I need to do a special configuration when install xf86-input-evdev?
