Hi, I have successfully installed Debian totally localized in the Greek language. I just selected 'greek' task and everything went smoothly. There are some visual artifacts in the console, mainly because of UTF-8 mode, but these are getting fewer and tasksel is still 1.47 in the last netinst cd (and as I understand 1.48 has the UTF-8 fixes). Now, the installation went ok and I managed to boot into a totally localized KDE system but I had to do some extra steps that I believe could be automated as well. These are: * setting up the fonty debconf value to ISO-8859-7 (for greek in console) * setting up the X keyboard debconf value to 'us,el' and the XkbOptions to 'grp:alt_shift_toggle' so that keymap switching is possible instantly. * Configuring KDE to use some truetype font (this one does not get configured with debconf and would require tampering of some KDE config file (.kderc probably)
Now, is there a package that I could use to incorporate these settings? So that before the installation of the aforementioned packages I could preset the debconf values so that they don't get asked again (or if asked they should at least have a preset value). I thought about configure-debian, but I'm not sure, perhaps even base-config? If not, should I create my own package? I think that option is not ideal, as what I'm trying to do is not really that specific to greek, I presume other languages would like such a automatic configuration. Perhaps there is already such a package, in which case I would really appreciate it if you told me about it :-) Anyway, I have to say that I was really glad to see this work almost perfectly and I would like to thank all those people that have stood up with my sometimes annoying bug reports :-) But I have to thank specifically Joey Hess, Christian Perrier and Dennis Barbier. I'm really happy right now so if I forget another one, please forgive me :-) Regards Konstantinos -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
