I have Hebrew working OK in Gentoo except for printing (which I couldn't do in RH 7.3 either).
The only things you have to do is to correctly specify the keymap to be used in XF86Config, emerge the Hebrew versions of KDE and KOffice, and enable the relevant options in KDE. BTW, I also only have dial-up (33.6Kbps). I also have lots of patience ;) Martin Polley Technical Communicator http://www.surf-com.com/ [EMAIL PROTECTED] Tel: (+972) (4) 9095-732 Mobile: (053) 864-280 ICQ 15617901 Hlade's Law: If you have a difficult task, give it to a lazy person.

Use Gentoo, mplayer works beautiful. Flamer ;-). Seriously, though, I'd love to try Gentoo, but I am no longer on a T1, just dial up (hope I find a new job soon enough), and I am waiting to hear from list members that Hebrew support is on par, as well as learning more (on or off list) about their q&a. In the mean time, I replaced the libdvdread and libdvdcss packages for RH8.0 with those built for RH7.3 and which I know work (you all remember an earlier post how, when installing a minimal RH7.3 system, I managed to play dvds very nicely, without any glitches. BTW, a minimal linux system that includes xmms and xine runs about 350 megs, not too bad), and nothing changed, which means that they are not the culprit. So I assume that the problem is caused by RH 8.0 X packages, although I don't know which ones. The possible culprits, IMO are: XFree86-Mesa-libGLU-4.2.0-72 XFree86-libs-4.2.0-72 XFree86-Mesa-libGL-4.2.0-72 XFree86-4.2.0-72 What do you think? ================================================================= To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] ================================================================To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
