[Bug 891638] Re: missing Hebrew menus at login time

 

Hi Gunnar,
I finally see my error! In the Language Support Hebrew was always grayed out. I assumed that the fact that it was grayed out meant that I couldn't use it. In fact I couldn't choose it, but I COULD drag it up to the top, and THAT I didn't know.

So that solves the main problem in that my friends can use Hebrew. There
is another system which I use for compilation of Netbeans and others use
for data entry. I prefer English but Hebrew is necessary for those doing
the data entry. Thus I await your update which will completely solve the
problem.

BTW, I REALLY appreciate your very prompt response. In the old days I
used to use Windows and in your fondest dream you could never get
someone to even look at the problem, let alone FIX it!

Thanks,
Ilan

Title:
  missing Hebrew menus at login time

Status in “lightdm” package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  I thought I had reported this bug, but apparently not. In all versions previous to 11.10 it was possible at login time to choose your language. To many of my friends for whom English is a chore, this is extremely important. I have told them not to update until there is a solution.
  Hebrew is defined as a language on all my machines and I can use a Hebrew keyboard. What is missing from 11.10 is the ability at login of a given user, to choose to use Hebrew menus. This used to be there in all previous versions.
  Thanks,
  Ilan
