Hello, I need to send emails using text in arab, So using woody, I installed kde 3.1 (which has support for arab) and mozilla 1.2.1
the versions used are: Woody + + kde 3.1 for woody: deb http://download.us.kde.org/pub/kde/stable/latest/Debian/ woody main + Mozilla 1.2.1 for woody: deb http://people.debian.org/~frankie/debian/woody/kalem/ /
- My kernel is the standard 2.4.20
- I generated all "arabs" locales using dpkg-reconfigure locales, ...
- I configured kde to set the "flag" (kde keyboard tool) in the right down corner of the screen tho the keyboard layout "arabic" "ar"
- I configured mozilla mail composer: character Coding: Arabic (ISO-8859-6).
And when i write the text of the email in mozilla mail, I does not
obtain arabic characters:
for example:
for key s, I obtain the greek beta letter
for key e, I obtain the euro character
Please, if some one know how to configure debian to be able to send arab mail, it would be great. If not, i would be obliged to switch to another distrib for this user :-(
- For your information, knoppix which is a distrib based on debian, can do it. So I think that this should not be very difficult to get it working in woody, but i am blocked now without solution.
Thanks for your help
Manuel S.
