Hardware layouts (for wired or bluetooth keyboard) for Armenian (typewriter), Programmer's Dvorak, Georgian, Russian (phonetic), Chinese layouts. Enjoy.

1.1-1 added chinese

(i have converted chinese xkb layouts, but as i understand they map to latin letters. there should be something else to parse those letters, i guess, this pinyin engine may be. so chinese people who has more experience with this may help me and other users of this package by providing hints).

1.0-2 initial.

Jolla 1 requires reboot for some reason, in order to show the input methods in Settings - Text Input - Hardware keyboard layouts.

Xperia XA2 under the same 3.2 sfos does not require a reboot.

hey!

no problem! can you give me the name of the linux layout?

You can find the names of the layouts from /usr/share/X11/xkb/symbols/cn file.

So I found there:

 

inky@ohmu /usr/share/X11/xkb/symbols $ cat cn | grep xkb_symbols
xkb_symbols "basic" {
xkb_symbols "tib" {
xkb_symbols "tib_asciinum" {
xkb_symbols "ug" {
xkb_symbols "altgr-pinyin" {

I guess you need just "basic" ?
