 |
|
Hey, sorry guys, but my polish writing/reading skills suck so I'm writing in english.
I want to setup on my Gentoo desktop for my dad. His english isn't as good, so I thought it be cool if I could setup up the desktop where most of it was in Polish wherever possible (eg. menus).
So do you guys have any experience/advice how to do this? By the way I'm using kde. |

Set LINGUAS in /etc/make.conf :
And then emerge kde-i18n, and your Dad has got KDE in polish  |

it will be better to set LINGUAS="en pl", as you are probably going to use English version of linux

Thanks guys  . I've also found some other things I have a questions about.
I put the following in his home .bashrc file
For openoffice, I guess I can't use the binary version to get Polish support. So I'll need to emerge openoffice with But how do I do it so I have both english and polish support?
For firefox and gdm, is it possible for them to use Polish? |

firefox:
to firefox polish language pack
Short: as a user who need to have polish firefox, click here to download and install polish language pack for firefox 0.9.1. Then you have to open Tools-->Extension and switch to polish
