Alternating 2 keyboard layouts with Key Combination
Sorry it was a typo, _ instead of -, that caused the problem.
I want to have a key combination to alter the keymaps. It worked with one for us and one for hu, but now I want to use one key combination to alternate them.
I have this script:
CURRENT=`/home/ha/bin/xkblayout-state print "%s"`
case $CURRENT in
us)
setxkbmap hu
;;
hu)
setxkbmap us
;;
esac
I've installed xkblayout-state from source.
Works properly from command line:
$ change-xkbmap.sh
$ #;;''
$ change-xkbmap.sh
$ #ééáá
But when I set the key combination, it doesn't work.
I have used the same key combination for setxkbmap hu and it worked.
If it's possible, I would use Super+Space, but it's worse. It also prints a space.
Ubuntu 22.04 in Hyper-V, Gnome 42.9
Before you write that I can switch without scripts. Yes I know, but it stops working after some time (after some suspend of the host Win10) in Hyper-V.
UPDATE 1: The permission is -rwxrwxr-x so the problem is not that.
UPDATE 2: There was a typo in the script's full path. It works well now with Alt-Shift-H or with Super-X but not with Super+Space nor with Alt-Shift-Space.

You probably need to change the permissions on the file to make it executable. You can do that with chmod:
chmod +x change-xkbmap.sh
To verify, try running ./change-xkbmap.sh in a terminal without sh.
Alternatively, using sh /home/ha/bin/change-xkbmap.sh in the shortcut dialog might also work.
