Faroese Keyboard Layout?

I’ve been using using Ubuntu and Arch with gnome for ages, but after the whole gnome3 and unity hubub, I decided to go with kde and openSUSE. and I’m completely loving it.

However, I have one problem
Ubuntu (gnome) has the option to choose the Faroese keyboard layout, but in openSUSE with kde, it’s not an option.
Now I really need to be able to write a lot, so I need the regular Faroese layout, otherwise I’m missing the letter “ð”.

Any ideas??
Any help is greatly appreciated

(PS. openSUSE should really implement Faroese into the keyboard layout options)

Welcome to the forums. Which version are you using? In 11.4 KDE SystemSettings>Input devices>Keyboard layouts, there is a Faroese option.

it is there, but more hidden than it should be for such a large place :slight_smile:

go Configure Desktop > Hardware > Input Devices > Keyboard > Layouts >
left click (to check) “Configure Layouts” (mid-window) > left click “Add
Layout” > in new pop up, spin “Limit selection by language: Any
language” to “fao”, suddenly the Layout will switch from whatever is
there to something to make you smile

click “OK” then “Apply”

hmmmm…then, hmmmmm…i forget how to make that the default for use…

OH, i guess you just left click on the new “Faroe Islands” line and then
click the green , up pointing arrow to move it above whatever is there
now…

har en god dag! (i know several from your land…nu har vi fantastisk vejr!)
