From your description, it sounded like OpenOffice is picking up some unsuitable font for Hindi (with Unicode, it can automatically select a font without the need for you to specify it), but then the problems should have gone away once you switched specifically to Lohit Hindi, which is quite an adequate font.

Like, say, I am writing 'santa' of 'santa ramdas', would it be like this 'm' for 's', 'v' for 'n', then 'd' for conjoining, and 'l' for 'ta'? If that is the process, then 'gedit' is giving a problem too. The 'ta' is getting conjoined not after 'n', but after 's'. Please tell me the correct way of conjoining. So, all this problem was coming from Ubuntu OOo? That is quite probable. In Bangla too, Ubuntu is giving a lot of problems. Some Bangla essay, which I am writing for quite a long time, around two years, is getting mangled in many ways by Ubutnu 7.04 OOo. Though it is reading quite nicely in Fedora, with all the things in their proper place. What to do now? I have to enable both Hindi and Bangla support in this old Compaq laptop of one of my colleagues. Shall I install something else? Any suggestion? This colleague, just like me, is no developer. But quite an intensive user of Wordprocessing and very usual things like browsing, writing mails, or occasional music or movie. 'mplayer' and 'Firefox' are running quite well on this box with Ubuntu 7.04, even the Hindi and Bangla pages are showing up well in the Browser.

[ilugd] Hindi and Ubuntu 7.04
Hello Friends I am facing a queer problem in Ubuntu 7.04 Hindi. I installed the keyboard layout and the Hindi fonts and all, as suggested by apt-get. Now, after, opening the OOo window, I can type the English or Bangla text quite normally. But, when writing Hindi, a peculiar problem is popping up. Let me elaborate it with an example. For a try, I started typing 'sarfaroshi ki tamanna'. As the Devnagari layout goes, key-m stands for Hindi-'s', so I typed it. It showed. But now, adjacent to this the Hindi 'r' would not show. If I type a space, and then hit the key-j, which is meant for Hindi 'r' it will show. And then I can come back and delete the space. And this way continued for the whole word 'sarfaroshi'. Even with the two vowel marks, 'o' and 'i', the same thing happened. After Hindi 'r' I have to type a space and then I can type the key-a, which is meant for Hindi 'o', and then I can come back and delete the space. Though the OOo Font field was showing 'Deja-vu', it was using some Hindi Font, the name of which I don't know. Now I tried 'Lohit Hindi', the Bangla version of which is quite a good font. But, the same thing happened. I must be doing some very silly mistake somewhere, but, please don't get angry with me for disturbing the list with it. The fault goes more to my wit, than me. Should I try a 'restart' -- the bad old MSW way?

[ilugd] [ANNOUNCE] pypt-offline 0.7.0 Released
Hi, After quite some time, I'm happy to announce a new release of pypt-offline. Some of the quick features are: * Offline Bug Report support - Users can now also have information about what packages contain bug reports. [Debian Only] * Colored Output - Full colored output. [ Support on Windows is through WConio] * Better support for threads * Many new options added I've now started using Mercurial along with SF's SVN which can be viewed at [1] and [2] I've also put up a video at [3] explaining how pypt-offline works. What is pypt-offline? pypt-offline is an Offline Package Manager for distributions based on Debian. It can allow a user using a Debian distribution with no internet connection to be able to update/upgrade his box with the help of another box running Windows/Linux/Mac A recent article from Ars [4] was informative enough to show how many countries still don't have [or is very expensive] a proper internet connection. I hope pypt-offline will be helpful to people who are willing to enjoy the powerful features of Debian but aren't yet able to do so because of internet connectivity. Feedback welcome.
