Re: KDE language switch broken?

I think Isam is right. I get Arabic interface working smoothly in all KOffice applications, and in fact it is better than under the Windows system, because the cursor position is a true position--i.e., the cursor is at the end of the line, and not at the beginning of the line as you type Arabic text.

Maybe this is off the subject ..
But reviews indicate that there is alot of probelms in Mandrake 9 that have to do with Mandrake 9 .. I am using KDE 3.0.3 and everything works for me .. including the Arabic interface ..
it seems that probelms in Mandrake 9 are caused by Mandrake 9.. so it would be better to tell the Mandrake people about these probelms as it is THIER problems ..

Greetings all,

Is there something wrong with the KDE keybaord tool? It seems that I can't
setup the KDE Control Center to "switch and lock" languages (English <--->
Arabic) using any key configuation.

I did this before under Suse 8.0 and KDE 3.0, but I'm not on Mandrake 9.0
and KDE 3.0.3 and I can't get the language to switch.

I basically go to control center/peripherals/keyboard

then the layout for arabic is there, I go to options and I set Group
Shift/Lock Behavior to some key, or 3rd level chosers to another key, but
the keys never really work.. i.e. switch the language.

The only way to swtich the langauge is to click on the taskbar KDE langauge
icon and that's inconveient... anyone has a clue on this?

regards,
Jasem.
