Note: The Keyboard Indicator should be used on Linux systems using
Gnome as a desktop environment.
When using a Hungarian keyboard from a Linux client, the Latin letter U
with Double Acute and the Latin letter O with Double Acute work only
with JRE 1.6 (and later).
There are several methods that can be used to set the keyboard
language preference on Fedora
®
Linux clients. The following method
must be used in order for the keys to be mapped correctly from the
Virtual KVM Client (VKC) and the Multi-Platform Client (MPC).
To set the keyboard language using System Settings:
1. From the toolbar, choose System > Preferences > Keyboard.
2. Open the Layouts tab.
3. Add or select the appropriate language.
