/lib/modules/2.6.20-15-generic/kernel/fs/nls/nls_cp1255.ko

I'm also missing 8859-8. I wonder if that's the problem.

I used this:
# mount -o codepage=cp1255,iocharset=utf8 -t vfat /dev/sdb /media/usb/

No, I'm still getting the filesystem error:
# mount -o codepage=cp1255,iocharset=utf8 -t vfat /dev/sdb /media/usb/
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sdb,
       missing codepage or other error
       In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
       dmesg | tail  or so

I'd try reformatting the card, but until I get the info off of it, I
cannot do that.

As of OOo 2.1, Hebrew support is excellent. Each new release brings
improvements. The current 2.3 is terrific, and I've switched at least
five or six MSO users to OOo. Note that MSO documents plague my
university, and without OOo supporting Hebrew, I would be unable to
use Linux at all.

אהיה כאן עם תזדקק לעזרה!
I'll be here if you need help!

You will find Hebrew to be a very easy language to learn, especially
if you already speak another language (any). Biblical Hebrew, mind
you, is a slightly different animal, but I can still help.

Not getting very far at the moment, but we'll see. I'll keep the list updated.
