Hi, The xfs usually (but not all the time) doesn't display Chinese correctly (just a mess) in my X, from here to there. crxvt is the only place always does right job. netscape - menu, tool bar, form's button are messy (but content text is OK) control center - if I set Personaility/Language to Chinese/big5, next time all of it get messy. gvim - if I don't compile it with gtk+ GUI, the menu is messy. ... ('messy' means the underlying text is indeed zh_TW.Big5 but not displayed correctly) Environment: . first installed MD8.1: major lang=zh_TW.Big5 (ever problem but fixed) . now upgraded to MD8.2: major lang=en . manually change /etc/X11/i18n to use zh_TW.Big5 (If I put a ~/.i18n with LANG=en_US, Netscape's menu, tool bars will become English and can be accepted but the form's button text remains messy.) Mentioned above, due to laziness of font server, I can not use Mandrake control center to change the language. Please show me a way to get out of this nightmare! Thanks, best regards, charlie
