Release Keyboard layout changer

[badcloud]

I have no idea whatsoever why that would happen. All It does is setxkbmap and xmodmap

Does sound like something starts pegging the CPU att full usage?

Good instinct. Openbox spikes at around 95% for about 10 sec., then cools down (everything back to normal)

Where would be the place to find out why?

 

[badcloud]

Found a workaround:

edited rc.xml to have ctrl-9 execute "setxkbmap -layout en" and ctrl-0 execute the same for other layout

DONE

 

[badcloud]

Found the culprit

 

xmodmap ~/.pndXmodmap creates the spike in cpu (below is .pndXmodmap contents)

Here's a french keyboard.

I added it into Slackware a while ago, but didn't ask for .pnd inclusion.

ummm, that's just a text file with the command "setxkbmap -layout fr" inside

Oh ?

Ok, i think as i made it a while ago, i'm probably simply calling one of the numerous Slackware keyb layouts !!!

My bad :/ .

Thx for reporting btw !

That's how all keyboard layouts look for the layout changer. Except for those for the built in keyboard, those also usually have an xmodmap file too.

Ok

it's the xmodmap command which has been spiking up cpu in openbox (filed a bug report)
