justification for severity: inputting characters in one's native language, especially those which have their own key on one's keyboard, is one of the very basic features of a word processor. Hi, after the last update in testing ca 2 days ago (from OOo1.1.2-2, I think) inputting German special characters (ö,ä,ü,ß) with my German keyboard stopped working. What I get is this: (ö, ä, ü, Ã) - two characters for every single key stroke ... a problem interpreting unicode? Before, I never had a problem with this, and it only pertains to OOo, not xterm or or any gnome application. Starting OOo with a command line like 'export LC_ALL=de_DE.UTF-8; oowriter &' (or LC_ALL=en_GB.UTF-8 for that matter) doesn't seem to help. There's no error message on the console, but two lines coming up in ~./.xsession-errors every now and then (I use metacity): Window manager warning: Property _NET_WM_NAME on window 0x1e0001d contained invalid UTF-8 Window manager warning: Property _NET_WM_ICON_NAME on window 0x1e0001d contained invalid UTF-8 Florian -- System Information: Debian Release: 3.1 APT prefers testing APT policy: (650, 'testing'), (600, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.7-1-686 Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, [EMAIL PROTECTED] Versions of packages openoffice.org-debian-files depends on: ii debianutils 2.8.4 Miscellaneous utilities specific t ii openoffice.org 1.1.2-3 high-quality office productivity s ii openoffice.org-bin 1.1.2-3 OpenOffice.org office suite binary -- no debconf information
