Hello all, I've been using debian for ages it seems now and have one question that's been nagging at me for a while.
Through X and in some cases on a local tty I get some odd characters. This usually happens in a terminal in X (any of them) and when viewing web pages through firefox or epiphany. In the case of a browser, the best example is http://wikipedia.org where the different languages are displayed. I see large hollow boxes with four values such as x, 0, 5 etc. As well as solid diamonds with question marks in them. In the case of a terminal, running sensors displays RPM and temperature values, when it displays the temperature I see either an empty box or a filled in character with a question mark in it (for the circle that represents degrees). I've run locales and here's the output through my own login: $ locale LANG= LC_CTYPE="POSIX" LC_NUMERIC="POSIX" LC_TIME="POSIX" LC_COLLATE="POSIX" LC_MONETARY="POSIX" LC_MESSAGES="POSIX" LC_PAPER="POSIX" LC_NAME="POSIX" LC_ADDRESS="POSIX" LC_TELEPHONE="POSIX" LC_MEASUREMENT="POSIX" LC_IDENTIFICATION="POSIX" LC_ALL= Here's what it returns after an su - to root: # locale LANG= LANGUAGE=en_US:en_GB:en LC_CTYPE="POSIX" LC_NUMERIC="POSIX" LC_TIME="POSIX" LC_COLLATE="POSIX" LC_MONETARY="POSIX" LC_MESSAGES="POSIX" LC_PAPER="POSIX" LC_NAME="POSIX" LC_ADDRESS="POSIX" LC_TELEPHONE="POSIX" LC_MEASUREMENT="POSIX" LC_IDENTIFICATION="POSIX" LC_ALL= I run: ii linux-image-2.6.18-1-amd64 2.6.18-3 ii locales 2.3.6.ds1-7 As well as gnome-* What have I misconfigured?
