Changing OLPC locale the hard way…
this post is just for a reminder for me 
. Now OLPC build contains sugar-control-panel so changing locale from that is very easy! just a simple command and walla! the locale is changed.
how? here it is … $ sugar-control-panel -s language Urdu/Pakistan
simple aint it .. but why i am writing it because i have to experiment with a historic build and its useful for Fedora as well
$ cd /etc/sysconfig/
$ vi i18n
add LANG= “ur_PK.UTF-8″
and then restart X or restart you machine ( for fedora/olpc Users )
and if you are using my Favourite Ubuntu and want to change to locale of the machine then its simple just edit
$ vi /etc/environment
add LANG= “ur_PK.UTF-8″
and restart X or machine and there you go then locale or orientation of you desktop is in urdu i.e. right hand side writting scheme.
soon ill be writing more about localization issues from PO files to MO and from Keyboard configuration to Font installation

That is known that cash makes people free. But what to do if one does not have money? The one way only is to try to get the loans and just auto loan.

Old era students completed the customized research papers themselves and that could spoil their academic grades. However, all is changed at present time and modern students would have a chance to purchase custom term papers from superb term papers writing service.
