No rest for this old dog. Here is how I built my language switcher in Saluki. The languages are Danish and English (US). I was searching Control Panel and found my answer. Go to Control Panel and XFCE Settings Editor. Open (Under Channel) “keyboard-layout". Click on anyone of the sub-Properties...

Darkcity - Thanks for the quick reply. fbxkb is in Saluki, but I don't know how to activate it. After I get a switcher working, then I can think about fbxkb. I really would like an icon on my panel showing which language I'm using. But, I haven't found a switcher as yet in Saluki. First things first...

I have installed duel and triple language layouts in several distros.
Here are two I now have working on my laptop.

I don’t remember how I installed it in Crunchbang-10, but
in my Crunchbang-10 I go to etc/default/keyboard.
There I have:

Since I need only 3 more letters in Danish than English, is there a way in Saluki and/or Precise where keys could be assigned these 3 special Danish letters? For example -- could the Windoz key along with the a-key could be used to make the Danish circle-a (å) letter? Win+o make the Danish slash o (...

Hi Wimpy,

I think we are working on the same issue,
just different languages and different Pups.

I hope you get your answer and if so
please post it.

Now I'm trying the Precise Puppy 5.4 CD. It provides a language switcher, but doesn't seem to allow a bi-lingual keyboard. I.e., I can have EN or DK, but not both checked. To switch I must go back to setup. Thus the switcher is useless. Strange. Saluki provides for multilingual keyboard, but no swit...

I booted Precise 5.4 CD. Installed Firefox 16 (which BTW was called Nightly). No go. -- Asked for plugin and I don't know how to answer. Fired up Seamonkey -- I was able to call out. ':D' Now with Precise I must start over from the top of my list of requirements. Virtual Box Skype Java Webstart 2 la...

Still running Saluki via CD.
No reboot.
Updated Firefox to 17.0 from Firefox Help.
Restarted Firefox.
Removed my plugin using ppm.
Downloaded your plugin.
Installed your plugin.
Firefox still asks for the plugin.
Restarted Firefox and still no go.
What am I missing?

I need to be able to write in 2 languages, English and Danish. Danish is like English, except it has 3 more characters. This has been no problem using Windoz and Ubuntu. I press Ctrl and Shift together and the language changes. I can see the little icon on my panel showing which language I'm current...

Background: I been using Linux since 2005. Nothing fancy, usually Ubuntu. i resently built pc. 64-bit. 4GB RAM, 0.5TB HDD. I've run Crunchbang 10 and other OSs on it, so I know hardware works. I want a 3.x kernel and no duel boot, just one OS. Looking for a fast OS that also does Google Talk. Now I'...
