hi

just got my n900, and tried installing hebrew according to http://wiki.maemo.org/Hebrew_N900
Titchadesh.

when i receive an SMS, it's just junk (no hebrew letters)
when i try to switch layout via ctrl-space i get "input language switched" but keyboard is still english
Try to use "shift-backspace" to change to Hebrew.
ukeyboard doesn't have an option to select hebrew.
You should select Hebrew as the second language in Settings->Text Input (scroll to the bottom).

any idea ?

I also had to reboot the device before the UI would use the new iconv modules and show Hebrew anywhere.

        Last time I've checked about the Hebrew status I was referred

    This page is more about the localization - changing the interface
    direction. I am interested in internationalization - getting the
    applications to work with hebrew data.


        I've read on the page you mention bellow that you copy the
        culmus fonts
        from elsewhere. Why not just to install it?

        See http://armel-debs.applieddata.net/debian/ for an archive
        for armel
        machines.


    It's also possible, but on a limited storage device you might want
    to be selective, rather than installing all Culmus fonts.


        If there are any problems with installing the Hebrew packages
        on that
        machine, I'll be happy to fix them or supply workaround packages.


    I don't know how much you know about maemo - but in general, a GUI
    program won't work on maemo without porting (for example, only
    hildon enabled appss get keyboard input). For that reason, general
    debian arm pool is not much relevant.
