Yes I tried the loadkeys , the kbd doesn`t change the layout at all
žćčšđ are standard letters in Croatian keyboard


edit : I just found out that I can use Bosnian keyboard it is the same but some keys are missing and old script does not work

Code:
mkdir /etc/dt/config
cp Xstartup /etc/dt/config
cat >> /etc/dt/config/Xstartup <<%EOF%
xmodmap -e "keycode  55 = v V at grave"
xmodmap -e "keycode  24 = q Q backslash Greek_OMEGA"
xmodmap -e "keycode  25 = w W bar Lstroke"
xmodmap -e "keycode  26 = e E EuroSign EuroSign"
xmodmap -e "keycode  41 = f F bracketleft ordfeminine"
xmodmap -e "keycode  42 = g G bracketright ENG"
xmodmap -e "keycode  45 = k K lstroke ampersand"
xmodmap -e "keycode  46 = l L lstroke Lstroke"
xmodmap -e "keycode  56 = b B braceleft apostrophe"
xmodmap -e "keycode  57 = n N braceright braceright"
xmodmap -e "keycode  58 = m M asciicircum masculine"
%EOF

NAME
XkbGetGeometry - Loads a keyboard geometry if you already have the keyboard description SYNOPSIS
Status XkbGetGeometry ( dpy, xkb ) Display * dpy; XkbDescPtr xkb; ARGUMENTS
- dpy connection to the X server - xkb keyboard description that contains the ID for the keyboard and into which the geometry should be loaded DESCRIPTION

In this case, the geometry returned is the one associated with the keyboard whose device ID is contained in the keyboard description. XkbGetGeometry can return BadValue, BadImplementation, BadName, BadAlloc, or BadLength errors or Success if it succeeds. DIAGNOSTICS
BadAlloc Unable to allocate storage BadImplementation Invalid reply from server BadLength The length of a request is shorter or longer than that required to minimally contain the arguments BadName A font or color of the specified name does not exist BadValue An argument is out of range SEE ALSO
