Re: Debian and Kylix open edition



I have it installed on Woody. Went without a hitch. Just follow the
instructions.

The only problem I had was linked to the locale environment variables. On
startup Kylix says something about creating fonts and then quits. It seems
that it does not like the "C" locale. Set the appropriate LC? variables to
"en_US" and you should be in business.

Sorry about the lack of details but I am not on the appropriate system right
now.

Philippe Clérié
