How to change keyboard layout switching shortcut keys to Shift+⌘ (Apple command key)? I'm using Ubuntu 10.04 with Mac keyboard.

There is no Apple command key in Keyboard Layout Options. When I try to add shortcut Shift+⌘ in Keyboard Shortcuts nothing happens, although Shift+⌘+anykey works.

Also, setxkbmap us works to set specific layouts, but not to toggle between them.

@RickGreen-Turbo This is answered. The answer would be better if it explained more, but it's still a potentially valuable answer. I recommend against closing this. – Eliah Kagan Jan 11 at 1:02
