[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ apt-cache depends xcin xcin Depends: libc6 Depends: libdb3 Depends: libtabe2 Depends: xlibs Depends: locales Suggests: libtabe-db Suggests: xfonts-base Suggests: xfonts-intl-chinese Suggests: xbase-clients Suggests: x-ttcidfont-conf |Suggests: ttf-arphic-bsmi00lp Suggests: ttf-arphic-bkai00mp |Suggests: ttf-arphic-gbsn00lp Suggests: ttf-arphic-gkai00mp Suggests: xfonts-cmex-big5p Recommends: rxvt-ml install all of them if you want to have a proper working chinese system. rxvt-ml should solve your problem. Note for the truetype fonts: I have made two new fonts which include all of the mentioned ones plus additional glyphs. they are a Kaiti and a Mingti font based on the arphic fonts. Currently they include the following charsets: ISO 8859-1,2,3,4,9,14,15 BIG5 GB2312-80 I'm constantly adding more glyphs so they should be updated every weekend. The fonts are available on ftp://debian.linux.org.tw/pub/3Anoppix/people/arne/ I will try to make debian packages for them today or tomorrow.
