hi, one thing that has been mentioned on this list, but for which there doesn't yet seem to be a good fix for is separating out the console and x keyboard options. as previously mentioned by another poster if my keyboard is latin american have the choice of setting LH_BOOTAPPEND_LIVE="keyb=latam" in which characters specific to latin american languages work in X but not in console. on the other hand if i specify the working console (which if i remember correctly is "keyb=la-latin1") layout with the LH_BOOTAPPEND_LIVE option these characters do not work in X.
i don't have a patch, nor am i sure where to start hacking on this. for the moment we are working around the problem by using "keyb=es" which of course is not ideal but seems to be as good as it gets. is it feasible to add and "xkeyb=" option for the various cases where there name of the layout differs between X and console? then i could do: LH_BOOTAPPEND_LIVE="keyb=la-latin1 xkeyb=latam" our project[1], which is a lenny based live-cd targeted at latin-american users interested in streaming audio, would greatly appreciate it. thanks, kevin 1. http://wiki.flujos.org/ On Wed, 28 Oct 2009 13:42:55 +0100 Daniel Baumann <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi, > > please send all patches you want to have merged in live-helper 1.x. > there will be a final upload end of next week, after which live-helper > 1.x is being deprecated and the work on live-helper 2.x starts. > > Speaking of the unreleased version 1.0.6 in git, note that i'll intend > to address and fix the following things: > > * syslinux pxe wrong pathes in shipped configs (quite old, #546910) > * syslinux bug when *not* using menu (quite old, #51799) > * syslinux bugs regarding menu/vesamenu (quite new, regression because > of my improper changed solution for #533846) > * lh_config format version handling (basically already present, but > needs checking) > * gfxboot as syslinux menu method. > > If you have antyhing else that is a) urgent or b) that you have a patch > for it, please speak up now. > > Regards, > Daniel > > -- > Address: Daniel Baumann, Burgunderstrasse 3, CH-4562 Biberist > Email: [email protected] > Internet: http://people.panthera-systems.net/~daniel-baumann/ > > > -- > To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] > with a subject of "unsubscribe".
