Hi!

Finally, found something ;)

1. Go to http://dejavu.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php/Download
2. Grab your copy (in my case it was FC3 rpm) and install it
3. Go to /your/e17/data/fonts dir (my is 
/opt/e17/share/enlightenment/data/fonts)
4. Copy DejaVuSans.ttf to that dir
5. Add this line to fonts.alias:

DejaVuSans.ttf -misc-DejaVu Sans-medium-r-normal--0-0-0-0-p-0-ascii-0

6. Run "enlightenment_remote -font-availiable-list" and check if DejaVuSans is 
there
7. Run "enlightenment_remote -font-fallback-prepend DejaVuSans"
8. Check if it there ( enlightenment_remote -font-fallback-list )
9. Run "enlightenment_remote -lang-set ru_RU.UTF-8"
10. Enjoy nice russian writings ;)))


Have fun,
Dan
