-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I have switched the default encoding of a SuSE Linux 8.2 installation from de_DE@euro to de_DE.UTF-8.

This works fine as long as I am using X11-applications, like KDE and xterm. However, non-ASCII-characters (e.g. german umlauts) are not properly displayed on the console and input of such characters is screwed up as well. Is there any way to fix this, so that input and display of non-ASCII-characters works on the console like before? - -- David Banz [ GPG-Key: 1024D/A0EB5FBA 2003-04-26 Key fingerprint = 1344 D4EE 9769 EC2F 396F FDB3 A9A1 D6E9 A0EB 5FBA ] "The zebra is not famous for its spots..." -- Winston Seth -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.2-rc1-SuSE (GNU/Linux) iEYEARECAAYFAkC5+bsACgkQqaHW6aDrX7rdFQCgh4D9hwsPjji3GGu0tXlhF90J yPoAoILnvA38CsZdEC/uhzxJjYeDErb/ =XEk3 -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
