NOTICE: thanks to great work by Ainulindale, it's already there in shr-unstable, so none of the following steps are needed. Read Localize SHR for a quick introduction.
E input doesn't work without proper locale, therefore you must install and use a utf8 locale. I made a package that creates en_US.utf8 locale and sets it on boot time. if you have any bug fixes/suggestions please let me know. (TAsn)
Package: Locale
What it generally does:
Known issues:
The correct keyboard layout should be loaded before use.
Either by a hack like in: xmodmap
or by proper layout loading.
According to raster (and verified by me), the e version used by openmoko is old and this was resolved in later versions. Should update the distro's build version.
On SHR you install the desired locales, rename the folder $HOME/.e and restart X to choose you're locale when asked for it. You can change the locale any time via illume wrench language settings.
opkg install locale-base-XX-YY # (e.g. locale-base-de-de, locale-base-es-es, ...) mv ~/.e ~/.e.bak # move e's config cache /etc/init.d/xserver-nodm restart # restart X and choose your locale
