Description

Can you add information about your current locale (echo $LANG)? I've tried it with en_US.iso885915 and en_GB (modified $GDM_LANG and restarted X). Actually, I'm not really sure where $GDM_LANG is supposed to be set, so I set it in ~/.i18n. I noted that /etc/profile.d/lang.sh overrides $LANG with $GDM_LANG, but can't find where it gets $GDM_LANG from in the first place. [root@blip etc]# grep GDM_LANG $(find) -c | grep -v :0$ ./X11/xinit/xinitrc.d/xinput:2 ./profile.d/lang.csh:2 ./profile.d/lang.sh:2 But it's SET in none of these. GDM_LANG is set by gdm. Note that the default en_US locale is en_US.UTF-8 not iso885915; the problem is possibly a mismatch where the X server is sending UTF-8. Ok. for some, unknown reason, it wasn't setting $GDM_LANG to that- I selected American English manualy and it did set $GDM_LANG (and thus $LANG) to en_US.UTF-8, but it still mis-displaied the char. as a side note, AltGr-. and Compose-.-. seem to both give the centered dot (0xC2B7) in xterm, while in Gnome-terminal Compose-.-. gives 0xCB99 (a centered dot) and AltGr-. does the 0xC2B7 ( The Wedge) a few other things along the same vein that don't work are Non-Breaking space ( d compose-SPACE-SPACE d should be three non-whitespace letters) Compose-1-2 should give =, and Compose-1-4 should <. The Compose-.-. in my previous message looks more raised then centered, but I'd be willing to beleive that's a font thing. This looks fixed now. |
