hi, again.

well finally DSL is THE distribution that I needed, rigourous, well down with myDSL system. Bravo !

I have only one puzzling point, still making problems:

I have a laptop T21 IBM, and my keyboard is french. Only solution I have until now is azerty key mapping. French keyboad and accents ( é è ù ë ê à ç) still doesnt work , and of course brakets for programming [] {} are not in good place. It will be good to have some REAL help on this point.

Other thing, where can I write my export something=/ / / and where is located PATH definiton ?

thanks to reply

Hi karistouf!

Have you tried the fr-latin1 keyboard-layout? I had some trouble in the past since I have a Swedish keyboard on a laptop but the se-latin1 keyboard-layout works good.

Have fun Y'all out there in cyberspace,
