Hi guys, It's awesome what you did with this distro. Very nice!


But cannot find how to install fonts and cannot set up romanian keyboard. I set it, but it jumps to english, does not save the change. Any idea?

That keyboard layout tool is just for the session. Try setting the keyboard with

Code: Select all

# dpkg-reconfigure keyboard-configuration
As for the network, antiX a tool called ceni that can deal with all types of networks.

The command for the keyboard you gaved me defines a keyboard layout, but how do I change between languages. I have no romanian characters __{{emoticon}}__ .

Another question is: can I change the language from english into romanian in the whole sistem?

And from where do I install fonts?

For the language you must run

Code: Select all

# dpkg-reconfigure locales
Deselect all that you don't want and select the ones you want and in the end choose Romanian as the default one.

Also if you had pressed F2 in the live-CD menu (supposing you installed via a live-CD) you could have chosen Romanian and it would have installed already in Romanian.
In case you intend to do another installation you may try the beta version anti uploaded today if you like.
