Re: [Sugar-devel] seeking help to enable nepali keyboard input for XO-4

Okay, that is consistent with the data we have for the SKU311
mentioned by Samuel on 8th November.

The divide and multiply key is the language switch key.

Makes things much easier. Now you just have to change the
manufacruring data as was suggested earlier, but you don't need to
modify the xkb symbol table.

Good luck.

Should you wish to alter the activities you could create your own
microformat page listing your activities or change OOB to use the
sugar_activities_extra module listing each url for the activities you
want to use.

Re: [Sugar-devel] seeking help to enable nepali keyboard input for XO-4

2013-11-12 Thread Basanta Shrestha
Amazingly changing the manufacturing data didn't do the job but changing
/etc/sysconfig/keyboard did. Wow! Now I have Nepali input system. Thank you
all.

Now I need to find a place to change default locale to ne_NP, so that the
default interface is in Nepali. There is an option to do this in
manufacturing data but it would be better if it can be done using file.

Re: [Server-devel] Listing subpages on the feature page

2013-11-12 Thread Tim Moody
I originally left the generated list at the bottom of the manual list as a 
sort of checksum, so that we can see visually that the two are in sync.  A 
subsequent editor took it out.


But the work process should always be to add both a feature detail and a 
line in the table.  I think the Features page says this.

Hi,

Think there's a minor issue with the page here:

http://wiki.laptop.org/go/XS_Community_Edition/feature

Although the table looks very nice, it has to be manually edited. Before
there was a subpage listing, which listed all subpages automatically. Think
that should still exist, but the table can be the main source of reference.

Or

we should have a clearly defined process saying anyone proposing a feature
add themselves to the table :-)

Best,
Anish
