Hi All,
Happy New Year!
I'm trying to replace the $ symbol on a friend's laptop with a £. The laptop is American, with only a $ key (HP Pavilion DV9600), and is running kubuntu 8.04.
Running locale shows LANG=en_GB.UTF-8 LANGUAGE=en_GB:en and some other stuff - I'm not sure if that has anything to do with anything.
Can anyone offer assistance?
Thanks, Jenny
The locale won't make a lot of difference if the keyboard is set to be a US layout. You will probably need to reconfigure xorg (I forget how exactly) so that the keyboard is a more desirable layout.
