Product: locales-fr
Component: i18n
Summary: problem with french_UTF8
Version: 2.3.1.4-3mdk
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
just after the install mandrake 9.1beta3, I run localedrake, and choose "France
(UTF-8)" (I choose it at the beginning of the install, thanks the "advance"
button). I see several problem :
1)During the boot, the messages are not displayed correctly : for example,
instead of "Amor�age", I see "Amorçage" (seems like the utf-8 message is
displayed like an ascii message, or an iso-8859-1 message)
2)In console mode, my french keyboard works perfectly when I'm not still
logged. But, after logging, I can't use deadkeys and can't type letters like �,
� or � for example. (the keyboard seems ok in X)
3)in the X loggin window, if I try to halt or reboot, I obtain :
The system is going down for system halt NOW!
INIT: Switching to runlevel: 0
INIT: Sending processes the TERM signal
;2R
... and nothing ! I must press enter, and then type manually "halt" or
"reboot".
P.S : for information, if I'am interested in utf-8, it's because I want to use
simultenaously french and esperanto, but that's an another story ;)
