One thing is missing in Knoppix-you cannot change - even if you go to system settings-the keyboard layout, for a different language. Is it a way to do it? Thanks....

    Hello and welcome!

    I don't run Knoppix so can't test it from my end, but check this wiki page to see if it helps you with this issue:

    According to that, I have to go to Control Center,etc. But according to what I have on the DVD 6.7.1, you can only go to Preferences, Local, but it doesn't have "keyboard layout".

    I haven't used Knoppix in a while. But some LiveCDs give you the chance to change your KB layout during boot.
    Is this no longer the case in Knoppix?

    I have the same problem.
    I'm running Knoppix 6.7.1 installed to the HDD, and I can't find where is the option for keyboard language.
    Found the "locale", changed the "country" setting, but keyboard language is nowhere to be seen...
