I am using Linux 2.6 Suse10 KDE (german version), Maya 8.5 32Bit.

1? Typically I am using the number pad for typing in numbers. Unfortunately in german a comma is used for writing decimals like 0,1234. So when I try that in Maya with the number pad maya expects a period (.) and not a comma (,). On german keyboards the . is a ,

I tried to fix it by changing the language settings in yast. It works as long as I am using a KDE programme but not in maya!

2? Under windows MMB drag in the channel box on a value acts as a virtual slider for changing the values. Not so in my configuration!

3? fcheck can't play animations (image sequences). Any other programs?

4? I can't find the MentalRay renderer in the render settings, though I can adjust settings in the attribute editor.

Any suggestions?
