You don't say which version of Linux you're using. (Ed)Ubuntu 8.04 (as
well as previous versions, I imagine) has support for Amharic.

Go to System->Administration->Language Support and click on Amharic.
That will download the necessary fonts, dictionaries, etc. You'll need
to be connected to the internet for that to work. I'm not sure how you
enter Amharic, but there are probably help files available once you
get the language support installed.

If you need more help, feel free to write back. I have a Gurage friend
who's a computer programmer who might be able to provide more insight.

Hope that helps,
Todd
