Hi all, I need some info (manual/guide/tutorial...) about locales and fonts.
I would like to understand font in gtk (vs kde) apps. 1) fonts missing in kde "fonts settings" are available in gtk apps (e.g. XMMS) and viceversa. 2) if I mount a vfat (win98) partition with iocharset=iso8859-15 konqueror shows file names correctly (e.g. italian letters like à à à à à à ) while xmms playlist does not (I tried with many fonts and w/wo multibyte charset support) 3) dpkg-reconfigure locales Generating locales... en_US.ISO-8859-1... done en_US.ISO-8859-15... done en_US.UTF-8... done it_IT.ISO-8859-1... done it_IT.UTF-8... done [EMAIL PROTECTED] done [EMAIL PROTECTED] done Generation complete. default is "en_US.ISO-8859-15". I'm sure I don't need them all, which one should I drop safely? (I need italian locale with euro support) 4) sometime (when locale is not ISO-8859-1) I get these warnings: Gdk-WARNING **: locale not supported by C library or Gdk-WARNING **: locale not supported by Xlib, locale set to C Is there any book or any web-page where I can find info ?
