Lots of years back I created a .xkbmap that allowed enterying nikud. I
believe that any layout of the nikud is fine as long as you have an image of
your layout to stare at. That way, you're motor memory will soon pick up the
layout, just as it does for any touch typing.
The laayout may be downloaded from:
http://imagic.weizmann.ac.il/~dov/Hebrew/pango-hebrew.html
Note that there is a draft standard for a Hebrew keyboard including nikud
at:
http://www.qsm.co.il/NewHebrew/Key1452.htm
It would make sense to add that to the default X11 keyboard driver.

Dov
