Hello Friends I am facing a queer problem in Ubuntu 7.04 Hindi. I installed the keyboard layout and the Hindi fonts and all, as suggested by apt-get. Now, after, opening the OOo window, I can type the English or Bangla text quite normally. But, when writing Hindi, a peculiar problem is popping up.
Let me elaborate it with an example. For a try, I started typing 'sarfaroshi ki tamanna'. As the Devnagari layout goes, key-m stands for Hindi-'s', so I typed it. It showed. But now, adjacent to this the Hindi 'r' would not show. If I type a space, and then hit the key-j, which is meant for Hindi 'r' it will show. And then I can come back and delete the space. And this way continued for the whole word 'sarfaroshi'. Even with the two vowel marks, 'o' and 'i', the same thing happened. After Hindi 'r' I have to type a space and then I can type the key-a, which is meant for Hindi 'o', and then I can come back and delete the space. Though the OOo Font field was showing 'Deja-vu', it was using some Hindi Font, the name of which I don't know. Now I tried 'Lohit Hindi', the Bangla version of which is quite a good font. But, the same thing happened. I must be doing some very silly mistake somewhere, but, please don't get angry with me for disturbing the list with it. The fault goes more to my wit, than me. Should I try a 'restart' -- the bad old MSW way? Apologetically yours -- das _______________________________________________ ilugd mailinglist -- [email protected] http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd Next Event: http://freed.in - September 28-29, 2007 Archives at: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.user-groups.linux.delhi http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/
