Everything is OK now, thanks a lot. Please report this bug to your colleagues so that it will be fixed in the next release of SuSE Linux.

...

Another problem with Greek characters, is that the framebuffer console doesn't display them correct. SuSE has set lat7a-14.psfu by default.

That is probably a mistake. See /usr/share/doc/packages/kbd/fonts/README.Greek

README.Greek> Some distributions have Greek fonts with names like lat7*, README.Greek> but latin-7 is ISO 8859-13, a character set for the Baltic Rim.

Sorry.

...

I tried the same changes for the locale variables but the problem still persists. Any thoughts ?

The following settings work for Greek on the console:

export LC_ALL=el_GR.ISO-8859-7 setfont iso07u-16 -m trivial echo -en "\033(K"

To get this automatically, you can edit /etc/sysconfig/console, a sample file using the values above is attached.
