Hi,
In the 'layouts' tab, I see 'keyboard model' with a 'choose' button, which gives me a list of keyboard models to choose from, but no languages, except theres a Brazilian layout. I don't know any Portuguese...
I'll try running SCIM using the command line...no luck, it still says "starting SCIM" after five minutes. I don't see SCIM on any menu.
I went to System=>Administration=>Language Support, checked Thai, checked 'Enable support to enter complex characters', and clicked "Apply". There was a progress bar while it did something, but I still can't find a way to switch keyboards"
In a pinch I can run a Thai live CD. It's slow, ties up the CD drive, and translates the entire UI into Thai, but OpenOffice runs Thai natively, with really nice fonts. I'd rather just be able to switch languages in my regular desktop and use Abiword, though. Any more suggesions?
