I recently switched my locale from no_NO.ISO-8859-1 to no_NO.UTF-8. This seems to work great, at least under Gnome and X. However, the Linux console does not know that I'm using UTF-8 and interprets all the UTF-8 that various programs spew out as ISO-8859-1.
There is a command line program called unicode_start which will un-confuse the kernel nicely. However, I need to invoke that manually rather to frequently. Is there a officially blessed way to set the kernel console in UTF-8 mode on startup? dpkg-reconfigure console-tools and friends only seem to deal with my keyboard layout. -- Gaute Strokkenes http://www.srcf.ucam.org/~gs234/ I want a VEGETARIAN BURRITO to go.. with EXTRA MSG!! -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
