Hi!
The BKSL key (backslash/pipe key) is not working properly if I set xxkbmap to
setxkbmap -rules xorg -model pc105 -layout cz,us -option
"grp:alt_shift_toggle"
The backslash key does not set back to backslash/pipe key when toggled
to "us" layout from "cz" layout. It has the same "cz" function on both
layouts.
Strangely enough, if I set "us" layout first...
setxkbmap -rules xorg -model pc105 -layout us,cz -option
"grp:alt_shift_toggle"
...everything works correctly.
Attached patch fixes the problem for me:
