The text console does not support CJK, obviously. That was a hardware limitation, and even as framebuffer became available, the kernel did not get any support to show more than 256/512 glyphs.
You have to run a program that does the rendering of the glyphs itself and submits images (rather than text) to the kernel -- fbiterm is one.
yes. exactly...I found psfu can only contains 256/512 glyphs.....which is far from enough for CJK.....
so either I should make a new "font" contains openSUSE used words and at the same time be less than 256 glyphs or I should find other ways.
I think I'll take a look at zhcon/fbterm or something others...because making a font is totally impossible....
Run Xorg, xterm, and enjoy all the preexisting software that can render truetype/opentype fonts.
sorry, I know little about console login.
is "xterm" or other terms like fbterm available for console login? eg: ctrl+alt+f1.
fb(i)term works by accessing /dev/fb*. xterm does not. xterm needs an X display context. Installing an X server is rather simple compared to 10 years ago and offers you so much more possibilties. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
