GNOME, numeric keypad & commas
by Nicolas Kovacs 02 Sep '18

02 Sep '18

Hi, Our local school has a 100 % CentOS network on servers and desktops. Until recently, we were using a highly customized Xfce desktop environment. Last week I decided to migrate all desktops from Xfce to GNOME, which went quite well. Now I have to sand down some rough edges. The secretary complained that she can't use the numeric keypad as before. She's using LibreOffice Calc a lot, and she has to type in a lot of numbers with commas. With Xfce this was not a problem. Under GNOME, this won't work anymore. As far as I can tell, this has to do with the locale-specific syntax of 0.00 vs 0,00. Our systems are all localized in french. Any idea how this can be solved?

Certificates

I am getting myself confused, and need someone who fully understands this process to help me out a bot. I would like to obtain an ssl certificate, so I can run my own imap server on a machine in my office. My domain is hosted by networksolutions, but I don't run my imap server there. I am assuming I'll need to pay a CA to generate what I need, but I'm confused about what I need. I am running dovecot at teh moment, but my clients (iphone, windows laptops) say my ssl connection is not trusted. The phone just won't connect. I tried emailing the dovecot.pem file to my phone and installing it, but it just says it is not trusted. This leads me to obtaining a real CA issued certificate. I'm not sure what to do with it, once I get one, and then if I need to subsequently regenerate my dovecot.pem file?? Thanks, -chuck --
