Title: read and write in hebrew?
Post by: o2shooter on June 01, 2010, 09:44:01 AM

Hi, I'm a real newbie to linux (well, i used ubuntu a little bit..), and i installed tcl, and i don't know make it read and write in hebrew, and i didn't understand this section in the faq: (http://tinycorelinux.com/faq.html#keyboard (http://tinycorelinux.com/faq.html#keyboard))

Code: [Select]

To make this permanent, add the extension kmaps.tcz to your persistent tce directory, and then either use the bootcode kmap=fi-latin9, or add the command to /opt/bootlocal.sh (missing the sudo, since bootlocal is executed as root):
loadkmap < /usr/share/kmap/fi-latin9.kmapwhat is my "persistent tce directory"? and do i need to copy the "kmaps.tcz" from /mnt/hda1/tce/optional/ to that dir?
And here (if i got it right, it tells me how to display hebrew or any other "not necessary" languages in tcl) http://tinycorelinux.com/faq.html#xmodmap (http://tinycorelinux.com/faq.html#xmodmap)

Code: [Select]

If the altgr symbols do not work in the browser or openoffice then modify the .xsession file by adding:
sleep 3 && xmodmap -e "clear Mod4" -e "add Mod5 = Mode_switch" &
Just before
exec "${DESKTOP:=jwm}"
Or, in later versions, right after waitforX.where is the ".xsession" file? and how do i "add" something to it?
edit: i posted it here by mistake, i wuz supposed to be in Q&A forum..(sorry for my screwed english.. and thanks!  ;D)

If you have "installed" TC to a harddrive (following the install guide) you should have you bootcodes look something like this:

Code: [Select]

kernel /boot/bzImage tce=hda1 opt=hda1
If that is the case, you tce directory is located at '/mnt/hda1/tce'.

No just have it located at '/mnt/hda1/tce/optional/' - TinyCore will find it!

The .xsession is located at '/home/tc/.xsession'

You can edit it using vi - the install guide explains how to
Or you can install an GUI-texteditor
