Comment(by bernie):

 Replying to [comment:3 J5]:

 > This is not going to happen for trial-3 since figuring out Ethiopian
 keyboard is more code than should go in at this point.  After Trial-3 the
 keyboard and language selection code needs to be rewritten and at that
 point this can be added.

 I had not read this comment when I added the patch.  Please disregard it.


 > For trial-3 I suggest adding a release note for changing
 /etc/sysconfig/i18n and /etc/X11/xorg.conf to support Ethiopian.  The
 Ethiopian fonts have been added to trial-3 builds

 There's some more work needed than just setting i18n and xorg.conf.  The
 full instructions are here:
