Hi Tim
Thanks fro the input. I am working together with the PAN Localization
team (Hour and Heng) to get the Khmer keyboard working.
I am not sure, but I think it is not a problem related to Khmer. Maybe
it is an XO keyboard switch problem. Searching in the Internet, I
couldn't find a keyboard file configuring another than the us keyboard
as default.
Do you know a deployment that uses the keyboard switch and has the local
keyboard as default?
Regards,
Philipp
