Hi,

I tested the latest live DVD version for FOSSGIS conference and found some
issues we cannot really solve. Maybe someone on the list can help?

Hi Otto,

I haven't tested the latest release and just remember from the FOSS4G
version.


a) The desktop/keyboard appears by default in English. And I had a problem
to change into German language for the workshops we want to do with the
DVD.
Maybe there is a certain procedure I have to follow?

I think it worked when choosing the right language and keyboard at the time
you log in.

Yes if you want to change languages you do it before the autologin. I
will check if there's an easy way to change the default for the FOSSGIS
version.

There is a quickstart describing this here:
http://live.osgeo.org/quickstart/internationalisation_quickstart.html

I notice that the description on how to change keyboard types is too brief. If someone can provide me with a better description for changing the keyboard, I'll update this quickstart.
b) If I want to run the ISO image locally with VirtualBox, I cannot switch
to full screen mode. The VirtualBox window is not adjusted to the full
Window
size. How can I do that?

As far as I know you need to install "Guest Additions" for VirtualBox. You
can find a menu item in the menu of VirtualBox.

Correct you need VirtualBox guest additions, which can be bundled into
the disc if you know you're going to use it in this way. I have done
this before.

So both of these could be addressed with the FOSSGIS custom iso.

How to increase screen size is explained in this quickstart:
http://live.osgeo.org/quickstart/virtualbox_quickstart.html

Search for "Increase Screen Size"
Thanks,
Alex
