I am using SuSE 8.0 installed from the start in Japanese.... so all of the Japanese CJK stuff is loaded and set as the default environment for all users. Unfortunately, the following applications do not suipport Japanese correctly: * StarOffice - japanese text entered appears as empty rectangles. * OpenOffice 1.0 (US and Japanese editions) - japanese text entered appears as empty rectangles. * AbiWord - Japanese text appears as undecoded garbled ASCII (eg. $CA$99) * KWrite, KSpread, KMail - much of Japanese entered vanishes (eg. ??? would result in ??.... the ? would always disappear... same with many Kanji). * Konqueror - no japanese text gets into any input boxes. On the other hand, these other applications work perfectly: * Netscape 4.7, 6.x, and 7.x * Konsole (KDE X terminal) * vim (/usr/bin/vi --> /usr/bin/vim) * kterm Why if I installed a 100% Japanese environment from the start is it that many of the significant applications are not accepting Japanese input? Is there something that I am missing?
