- - - Ctrl+Chr doesn't work in OpenOffice/easy-devian .

EDIT EDIT :
Another thread just taught me about the Ctrl-Chr switch.
( Nothing in my nit manual.)

It solves the problem by switching [ זר <> הצ ] ( and cyrillic <> latin).

But if one likes details, the difference described below is still strange.



(Apologies of this was covered before..)

@ qole , with many thanks for easy debian + easy mer !!

I run both in two ext2 partitions on my ext. mmc (N810, OS .43-7).
( debian-sqeeze-rootfs.tar.bz2 , I've forgotten which easy-mer and how I got it to a partition but it came with OO 3.)
OpenOffice 3 in both (as delivered within your easy-xxx-files), with different start logos though.

Those OO text editors behave differently with certain scandinavian umlaut characters.
( Due to differences in OO or "easy-" implementation? )
I guess Russian is affected too.

Look at the rx-44 file.
( /usr/share/X11/xkb/symbols/nokia_vndr/rx-44 , found in a post by fanoush.)

In the scandinavian section certain umlauts are defined in something called "EIGHT_LEVEL".
Exactly these come out different with the sliding keyboard.
( I have a swedish N810, set to English as device and Swedish as regional language.)
In easy-mer-OO : the swedish umlauts, as in e.g. leafpad.
In easy-debian-OO : the danish/norvegian umlauts.


Just in case this wasn't known to you.
Thanks again for your great stuff !


EDIT: Additional info.
My N810 changed keyboard layout all by itself.
( It happened once long ago and only reflashing helped.)
A window appeared saying "keyboard layout changed" or similar.

It is exactly the same umlaut characters that changed (, probably as if I had changed to Norvegian or Danish as regional language).

NOW:
Both OOs show the same changed umlauts.

As no changes of keyboard layout or language settings (with reboots) have helped,
I guess something in my tablet mishandles these "type EIGHT_LEVEL" definitions a bit.
