Thanks, for clearing this up. :)

But this refers to any application started under KDE, so I thought it's an KDE issue.

This is just a browser issue.  In your case a Mozilla issue.  I don't
know if you would have similar problems with Konqueror or not.

Same with konqueror, kmail, etc. I usually need this for mozilla or konqueror (when searching the web) and kmail when answering e-mails.


You probably don't need to have different environment variables for
Mozilla -- different settings in Mozilla might do it.  But, you MUST
have two separate profiles for Mozilla, one for Chinese and one for
Japanese.  Then I would suggest that you make separate menu, or
desktop, entries for them so that the command line starts them with
their respective profiles.  Consult the Mozilla documentation for the
proper command line syntax.

Thanks. I do need the environment variables, because I have to set LC_CTYPE and XMODIFIERS to reflect the correct input application for chinese/japanese typing.


So, what would be the correct way for KDE apps?
What about doing an ugly workaround, and configure one Linux/KDE-account for each of the two localities. Then use KDM to logon with one of the accounts, and use the console and ssh -X to have a shell with the other account/environment. Would this work?
The drawback would be, that your emails would be split between the two accounts. The same goes for the browserbookmarks etc.
