keyboard

[Tony Anderson]

Thanks for the help. However, I don't think I expressed myself clearly. 
I have my XO set up to switch between us and np keyboard layouts. What I 
need is a way in Python to find out which of these layouts is currently 
selected. The file /etc/sysconfig/keyboard is also unchanged when the '% 
x' key is used to switch the layout.

Naturally, I could put a combobox in a toolbar and have the user enter 
the selected keyboard, but it would be much more user-friendly to have 
the activity determine that for itself.
