Knoppix 6.7.1 DVD EN - problem with Czech locale
Hello list & Klaus!
There are two problems with the locale settings for the Czech
environment (knoppix lang=cz).
First one: /etc/locale.gen defines only cs_CZ ISO-8859-2. Would it be
possible to add "cs_CZ.UTF-8" (via dpkg-reconfigure locales)?
Second one: /etc/init.d/knoppix-autoconfig states some
obsolete info and should be updated to use UTF-8 and xkeyboard="cz"
Hence the two lines 410 and 411 would be:
cs|cz) # Czech version
LANGUAGE="cs"; COUNTRY="cs"; LANG="cs_CZ.UTF-8"; KEYTABLE="cz-lat2"; XKEYBOARD="cz"; KDEKEYBOARD="cz"; CHARSET="utf8"; KDEKEYBOARDS="us,de(nodeadkeys)"; TZ="Europe/Prague"; CONSOLEFONT="iso02g" ;;
If the above is not applied, the keyboard in X is unusable (cs in Xorg
stands for Serbian) and the terminal (xterm) works with a wrong charset.
P.S. There seem to be some problems with mount parameters for the USB
flash disk the Knoppix is running from - as a result, the accented
characters of filenames created in other operating systems are wrongly
displayed. (/dev/sdb1 mounted as /mnt-system) I will try to find what
the problem is and report back if successful.
regards,
Milan
