Hi Aaron, 1. generate locales: edit /etc/locale.gen . Add your desired locales in there. Mine includes: en_US.UTF-8 UTF-8 he_IL.UTF-8 UTF-8 he_IL ISO-8859-8 (Probably using UK instead of US will better, as their settings are closer to ours, but old habits die hard) After the run locale-gen. Read the comments in that file for more info. 2. Set system's default locale vars: edit /etc/env.d/02locale, and set your's default ones (of course you can use different locales for each setting. Like setting LC_LANG to en_US.utf8 and setting LC_CTYPE to he_IL.utf8) after that run env-update. 3. For Hebrew font in the console, edit /etc/conf.d/consolefont (again: see the comments in that file). 4. For Hebrew keyboard in the console (if needed), edit /etc/conf.d/keymaps. 5. For keyboard in the graphical environment, it's like any other. Either edit xorg.conf or set the keyboard in your DE (if it has such settings).
