How to change keyboard layout switch shortcut in console












2














I'm using Ubuntu 18.10 server. During installation I selected English as the system language and Russian as the main input one. It asked me to select the shortcut for toggling between the main and latin letters keyboards and I selected Alt+Shift.
How do I change that combination now?



Here is the output of localectl



   System Locale: LANG=en_EN.utf8
VC Keymap: n/a
X11 Layout: us,ru
X11 Model: pc105
X11 Options: grp:ctrl_alt_toggle


I've tried changing it with



localectl set-x11-keymap us,ru pc105 , grp:ctrl_shift_toggle


it did change the output of localectl respectively but the shortcut hasn't changed.



Note that I do not have any desktop environment installed and would like this done via console only.
