The SUSE default setup is actually much better than Microsoft Windows. I'm attaching a sheet that shows how to get most of the special characters you are ever going to need direct from the keyboard, assuming you are using the default UTF-8. You need to view it using a Unicode(UTF-8)-enabled font, eg GNU Unifont. This was for SUSE 9.0, I think, but it has changed only minimally since.
What are the "AltGr" key / key combo?
Sorry, I don't understand. What I mean is that you press the AltGr key (the key just to the right of the spacebar) at the same time as the other key given (if there is one), and then release them, and then type the required letter. For instance, to get é (e acute), I hold down the AltGr key and the colon/semicolon key together, then release them, then press the e key. To get ŵ (w circumflex), I hold down the AltGr key and the @ key together, then release them, then press the w key. Obviously, this is using an en-GB keyboard - the actual character on your key may differ if you are using a different keyboard layout. But experiment by pressing similar combinations of keys, and see what you get. So far as I know, this isn't actually documented anywhere, so I suppose it should go on the openSUSE wiki. -- Pob hwyl / Best wishes Kevin Donnelly www.kyfieithu.co.uk - KDE yn Gymraeg www.eurfa.org.uk - Geiriadur rhydd i'r Gymraeg www.rhedadur.org.uk - Rhedeg berfau Cymraeg www.cymrux.org.uk - Linux Cymraeg ar un CD -- Check the headers for your unsubscription address For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the archives at http://lists.suse.com Please read the FAQs: suse-linux-e-faq@suse.com
