Now I try to modify the files in xkbd... save them, but later they load as nothing have ever happened to them? Seems like linux r...

How to edit the keyboard layout?

Hi, guys after some weeks of intensive research on the Internet over the subject of Editing Keyboard Layouts in Linux (new "*buntu" Puppy as well) I ended up with the conclusion that either I am stupid or Linux is total pain in the aßs for non-programmers like me. You see the problem is th...

We are both wrong.
After moving the .sfs to C:\Puppy-Lucid-528 everything loads perfect!

That is what I thought so also. Another problem: · seems like new downloaded .sfs packages from Qiuckpet go in C:\ and NOT in the Puppy directory (C:\<Puppy-directory>) I move them into Puppy directory manually afterwards, yet I am afraid that way they will not load in Puppy startup... :roll:

^ Yes, I am pretty aware of that procedure you posted on. It is not about loading an existing layout or whatever, it is about editing (make custom) keyboard layout and then add it to the list via Kbd Setup Wizard. :) It just doesn't work the way it used to do in the old Puppies. If you edit a layout...

Edit (or Add custom) keyboard layouts, how?

Here is what I want to do: 1. I want to use English and Bulgarian languages (mostly): call it Latin and Cyrillic respectively. 2. I want to have two (or more) keyboard layouts per language (say: International, Dvorak layouts for the English and Phonetic and Standard layouts for the Bulgarian languag...

^ yes you are right, but... Here are some concerns I've noticed when using 'Puppy Linux Windows Installer v1.1': 1. It installs Puppy right in the Windows partition (commonly known as C:\) - I expected to ask me where to install, really :( 2. When a session is saved there is a problem loading it if ...

Another strange thing is that when I try to install the .sfs packeges for skype, adobe acrobat reader and the others in the list of Quickpet it tells me that I need to install Puppy in order to use .sfs packeges. Seems that is a limitation when using Puppy Linux Windows Installer (any version I supp...

Nope, testing Puppy with Windows Installer v1.1 for the first time, never have tried Puppy whatever booting way on that system (no CD, nor USB-flash drive). Just wanted to install it. At home WInXP Pro x32 bit the same installer runs fine and puppy loads fine and smooth as a breeze. I wonder where t...

Sorry, I am not a soft-dev. I cannot understand what you are reading. Why, why it has to be so complicated... In windows all that is done with a simple program (layout editor) and installer (setup.exe exported form the layout editor program). It used to be easy in the old versions of Mint, Ubuntu an...

So are you telling me that after Xmodmap is properly edited and saved, placed (where?) it will allow me to change not only my keyboard layout switching and their keycodes but also to allo me to switch between two or more different versions of a language layout (for example Int. and Dvorak)? If not, ...

Thank you guys. I will try that Xmodmap thing By saving it I meant in the text editor. later I restart X and no success - it still uses the old variant of the layout. I always do that change with ubuntu and seems I have a success. Recently I haven't tried that on the news distros... dont know if it ...

Of course one would prefer DejaVu Sans over Liberation Sans.

DejaVu includes far more glyphs and symbols while the basic letters in both fonts look exactly the same.
