Japanese input packages for LiveEval
Hello. Isn't there any good idea which includes a Japanese input package(e.g. Kinput2 and Canna) in a LiveEval version? -- -O_O-O_O-O_O-O_O-O_O-O_O-O_O-O_O-O_O-O_O-O_O-O_O- Yasunari Imado sjv@iris.eonet.ne.jp (PGP Key ID: 2582B3D6) [SSJV] http://ssjv.hmc5.com/ [DTL] http://www.eonet.ne.jp/~vazzy/ -O_O-O_O-O_O-O_O-O_O-O_O-O_O-O_O-O_O-O_O-O_O-O_O- <!-- It is difficult for me to express my mind in English. -->

I don't know for sure but I guess this is difficult. As Kinput2 and Canna are not yet included in the LiveEval version, it is necessary to add them somehow. But as far as I know, it isn't easily possible to install additional packages with rpm in the LiveEval version. And building from source probably isn't easy either on the LiveEval, because there is no compiler, no 'make', etc. ... Certainly it must be possible somehow to create a new LiveEval CD which includes the missing packages, but I don't know exactly how to do that and I doubt it is worth the effort. I would just use SuSE Linux Professional instead where all this stuff is already included. -- Mike Fabian <mfabian@suse.de> http://www.suse.de/~mfabian 睡眠不足はいい仕事の敵だ。

I appeal to the FeedBack Team. # My web site [SSJV --SuSE Support Japanese Version--] has # Daily-Access 50 over. # This means that many Japanese users are.

If I understand you right, you want to burn your own LiveEval CD which includes Japanese input software? Of course it must be possible somehow to mount the original LiveEval CD, copy all it's contents to some directory on your harddisk, delete some stuff you don't need to make room for Canna and kinput2 and add Canna and kinput2. You also need to extract the original boot image from the CD original LiveEval CD somehow. Then you could make a new, bootable ISO image again from your boot image and the hard disk directory using mkisofs. I haven't tried yet myself, therefore my description might not be completely correct. Anyway, although it probably isn't really difficult, it appears that quite a bit fiddling around is needed and I guess it's not really worth the effort. After all, a LiveEval is just intended for evaluation, not for real use. There are probably many things which work much better in a 'real' SuSE Linux installation than in a LiveEval and I guess it won't be much fun to use a LiveEval for real work.

Thank you very much for creating that web site! -- Mike Fabian <mfabian@suse.de> http://www.suse.de/~mfabian 睡眠不足はいい仕事の敵だ。
My English is not good enough to say what I really mean.

No. I'm running SuSE Linux FTP version on my pc.

I agree with you. But, although a Japanese input cannot be performed, how does it evaluate? If it is a wise user, it might be enough only in confirming the operation of hardware. Is the charm of SuSE Linux only YaST2...? # The release of a Japanese version are not expected. # However, I think that I choose SuSELinux over the future.

The new SuSE LiveEval 8.2 has support for Japanese input using kinput2 and Canna now. It is downloadable here: ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/live-eval-8.2 -- Mike Fabian <mfabian@suse.de> http://www.suse.de/~mfabian 睡眠不足はいい仕事の敵だ。
Thank you very much. I appreciate your wonderful work. A Japanese user is satisfied. 2003年4月17日 木曜日 18:14、Mike FABIANさんは書きました:
