SuSE 8.2 + Ximian + Japanese not quite working
My environment: * SuSE Linux Profession 8.2 installed in Japanese * KDE + GNOME desktops are installed and used from the SuSE 8.2 distro. * unedited .profile * By default LANG = "ja_JP" in my user environment * By default LC_ALL is undefined in my user environment * Mozilla is installed from the distro and Japanese support there has been great. * Konqueror from the distro is installed and again Japanese support has been great. * VI's Japanese support has been great, too. The problem: When I run Ximian the menus appear perfectly in Japanese with Japanese fonts, BUT: * when I go to create a new message and type Japanese the text entered appears as empty squares. * Worse, when I read any Japanese email all of the Japanese text appears as empty squares. * Even worse still, when I read Japanese email the places where things like "To:", "From:", "Subjust:" would be is replaced with empty squares that obviously contain the Japanese versions of that text. * The summary page is unreadable because all of the Japanese text is empty squares. I read a past thread titled "[m17n] Non-KDE applications in Japanese" and followed those recommendations (eg. copy /etc/gtkrc.ja to ~/.gtkrc... I further softlinked ~/.gtkrc.mine and ~/.gtkrc.ja to ~/.gtkrc. What can be done to make this work? PS: I have a similar issue with Japanese support and the JDK... I just can't see any Japanese text in any Applets. :(
