Hi everyone,
as some of you have already noticed, we have slightly changed the language support in openSUSE 10.3. To give you an update of what languages will be supported on which media set, here is a short summary.
KDE / GNOME CD: The 1CD's is English-only, _BUT_ you can get all packages supporting your language from the online repositories!
the kde cd behavior is quite surprising. on summary, the boot for install system uses localization, when the main system don't (waste of space :-) One *can* choose any langage at boot (first screen) and use his prefered one for the install (good) and this langage is still kept through all the install and on the final one, but after the first reboot, suddenly, the device config windows pops ups then desapear without notice (one can't use it) and kdm starts. so one is in kdm, with only root configured and with english langage (the local langage is configured, but the files are not there, so only english works). if it happen, like for me, than the root pass uses keys not in the same position as qwerty (here the "m"), I coudn't log - long time after I understood than I had to use the qwerty keyboard. the problem is minor. however you could keep some more place suppressing the (here french) keyboard layout for install system (or keep it for the final install) at least there should a warning: "from this point on you will be forced to use a qwerty keyboard" jdd -- http://www.dodin.net --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
