[SLE] kikbd problems in cyrillic
Hello, I can type in cyrillic in root, but I in user George , I can't. I open up a simple editor or console, and when I type on a key, nothing happens. No characters at all or typed. Strangley enough, in Star Office I can type just fine in cyrillic. Any ideas, as I have tried changing every font and setting in KDE. Things are just fine in root, so XF86Config is OK. I work with Russian programers, and they don't get it either. I'm told that kikbd is buggy. Thanks George __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
