Actually it's "-option ''" but thanks.

It took me time to understand that you want me to have this new code, but I 
managed after reading "man setxkbmap":

[code]
#!/bin/sh

# setxkbmap -option grp:switch,grp:alt_shift_toggle,grp_led:scroll -variant 
",phonetic," 'us,ru,il'

setxkbmap \
    -option "" \
    -option "compose:ralt,grp:switch,grp:alt_shift_toggle,grp_led:scroll"  \
    -variant ",lyx" \
    'us,il'
[/code]

I'm getting:

[code]
_XKB_RULES_NAMES(STRING) = "evdev", "pc105", "us,il", ",lyx", 
"compose:ralt,grp:switch,grp:alt_shift_toggle,grp_led:scroll"
[/code]

(sorry for the broken line). Now how do I translate this to what 
/etc/X11/xorg.conf accepts.
