Installed a RPi 500+ recently and now want to be able to switch input languages between Egnlish (UK), Korean, and Swedish. For the Korean I want 2-Set Korean as I use that input method on my various Macs. It would be nice to use the 500+s keyboard lights to indicate which language is the current setting for example nothing for English, Green for Korean, or Blue for Swedish. (Much easier to see than the Apple version which stuffs it all up on the status menu.) Happy to sacrifice an Fn+F* key combo to cycle between the languages. I am not expecting to run the 500+ in any language other than English but I need to be able to type text in the other two and sometimes all three in the same document.
I updated my 500+ to Trixie as soon as I turned it on. (Ethernet connection and the loader.) As it is a new machine there seemed no point in waiting around running Bookworm and doing the update later.
What optional packages do I now have to install to a) do the switch between input methods, and b) change the keyboard LEDs accordingly?
