 Of course, this can be also done at runtime using utility setxkbmap.  Shell

-     setxkbmap -rules xfree86 -model pc104 -layout us -option ""
+     setxkbmap -rules xorg -model pc104 -layout us -option ""
 
 The configuration and the shell command would be very analogical for most
 other layouts (internationalized mappings).
 
 2.2  Advanced Configuration
 
-Since XFree86 4.3.x you can use multi-layouts xkb configuration.  What does
-it mean? Basically it allows to load up to four different keyboard layouts at
-a time. Each such layout would reside in its own group. The groups (unlike
-complete keyboard remapping) can be switched very fast from one to another by
-a combination of keys.
