 Description of the Kannada Language
The dependent vowels, also known as Swaras in Kannada, serve as the common manner of writing non-inherent vowels and are generally referred to as Swara Chinhas in Kannada or Matras in Sanskrit.
Unlike Devanagari and some other Indian scripts, all the dependent vowels in Kannada are depicted to the right of their consonant letters.
The orthographic syllable is built up of alphabetic pieces, the actual letters of Kannada script.

 Sacred Groves and Sacred Trees of Uttara Kannada
Their blend of pre-Vedic paganism with faith in the supreme gods of Hinduism was often followed by the worship of anthropomorphic deities and temple construction with certain adverse consequences for the maintenance of the once luxuriant sacred groves.
The forests are the property of the gods of the villages in which they are situated, and the trees ought not to be cut without having leave from the Gauda or headman of the village, whose office is hereditary, and who here also is priest (pujari) to the temple of the village god.
Siddapur taluk as a whole is well known for the spice gardens maintained by the Havik Brahmanas, with Shiva and Ganapati as their major gods.

 HOWTO ON TRANSLATING KDE AND GNOME INTO KANNADA
This is basically written for Kannada, but the concepts apply to all other Indian languages and is highly incomplete.
At this point, you should be able to get into the control panel -> keyboard and add a new input locale (you won't see kannada there, but choose something close - say Sanskrit) and choose the kannada keyboard.
Before you begin to translate, you need to make sure your operating system is ready/capable of handling Indian Languages.
