There is an easy way to boot with your country locales and keyboard (console and X)

Take a look at this brazilian portuguese pack  to see how to do it ;-)

http://www.fotoboto.hpg.ig.com.br/pote/henrique/ptbr.dsl

In future John would make available in a separate download all the locales deleted, so we can see fluxbox, xmms etc in our own languages

and include it at the language pack also

GREAT!!!

It would be absolutely amazing to have, in the near future, a language customized dsl. Catalan for me, please!!!

Pity is, I'm a totally newbie... I have no idea whatsoever about linux, so, if anyone is reading this and can compile a catalan extension, it would be most welcome...

Great Idea, Henrique!

(sorry for my broken english)

Files that need be modified:

I will be give as an example the specs for brazilian portugues but each country has it's own ones.

Some languages are already right and can be choosed  with the cheatcode lang= but the great majority not

1- /etc/X11/Xf86Config

Section "Keyboard"
Protocol "Standard"
XkbRules "xfree86"
XkbModel "pc104"
XkbLayout "abnt2"

2- This only works when I add  the folder /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/locale/iso8859-1

3- /usr/X11R6/bin/startx

here I added at the begining

export LANG=pt_BR
export LANGUAGE=pt_BR
export LC_ALL=pt_BR
export LC_MESSAGES=pt_BR
export GTK_IM_MODULE=pt_BR
loadkeys br-abnt2

4-In /usr/X11R6/lib/locale I added pt_BR

(I dont remember where I found it , perhaps at the original deb of xlibs-data)
possibly not necessary)

5- Optionally if you want  fluxbox ,xmms etc in your language you must to search for the original debs and look for the locales of your language in /usr/share/locale
