To All,
Like jlx previously, I'm having trouble getting Red Hat 7.0 using Gnome
1.2 displaying Chinese (BIG5) correctly. The problem seems to be a matter
of fonts and GTK+ (though I cannot be sure). I've also tried looking at
the Chinese Linux Extensions website, but my chinese is almost
non-existent and a HOWTO on this matter is old.
I can change the locale settings (affecting /etc/sysconfig/i18n) by using
locale_config, but then I get gibberish in the menus instead. I believe
this is due to GTK+ trying to display Chinese characters in a non-Chinese
font.
I have also tried following a list of steps I used previously to
successfully convert a Red Hat 6.1 (Gnome 0.99/1.0) box to output and
input Chinese. These steps don't seem to work with Red Hat 7.0.
I'm capable under Linux and wouldn't call myself a newbie. My question is
whether there are anyone on this list has successfully gotten Traditional
Chinese displaying correctly in the menus - either with Red Hat 7.0 or
Gnome 1.2? Alternatively, does anyone have an idea how to do it? At this
stage, getting Chinese input to work is not a priority - though it would
be nice too.
If this isn't the best place to post, apologies and could
someone direct me elsewhere.
Thanks
