turning japanese with 8.04

[Barry Premeaux]

For Thai support, I install the locales in KDE for Thai language in
addition to my primary english language locales.  Once you have
installed the locales for Japanese, you will also need to install the
assorted fonts for Japanese.  You should then be able to go into KDE
Control Center and add the Japanese language for the keyboard.  I
believe this will give her a button down on the kicker panel that will
allow her to select between languages for the keyboard.

When I played with a Thai version of Knoppix and a Thai Linux based on
Fedora, they both had the button.  You may have to do some searching
on google for the keyboard layout.  There are a couple versions for
Thai and I had to find the right one.
