[arch-general] neo - german keyboard layout

[G. Schlisio]

hi list,
i played around with neo2, an alternative kbd layout optimized for 
german. in my kde environment.
the main concept of neo is using meta keys to shift between layers.
for me, the meta4 key is not working on either side. i found some 
suggestions to solve this problem, but nothing worked so far. anybody 
out there knowing, how to fix this?
and how can i enable neo in initramfs, for input of my encryption pw?
thanks
georg
