Hello, I recently reinstalled my Debian system (woody mixed with some testing and unstable packages), and since then I'm having problems to display japanese characters (I've never had any problem before the reinstall). Now, some characters can't be displayed (a strange rectangular box is displayed instead) neither on my gnome 2.8 nor on my Firefox browser.
I have both japanese locales installed (ja_JP.EUC-JP EUC-JP and ja_JP.UTF-8 UTF-8). I'm using both xfs(version 4.1.0-16woody5) and xfs-xtt (version 1:1.3.0.xf420-4) font servers. I also have all the basic stuff required to have an japanese-environment installed (using the japanese-environment option at tasksel during the system install process). My TrueType fonts come from Windows XP fonts directory (installed them using ttf-commercial package). A weird thing is that if I try to use my Japanese Windows 98SE truetype fonts, no japanese characters are displayed at all, just those wierd rectangular boxes. I followed basically the same steps as my previous Debian installation, however now I'm having this problem. The only difference that I noticed is that I don't recall using xfs-xtt on my previous installation, but I already tried to uninstall it on my current system and reconfigured to use freetype fonts (using the x-ttcidfont-conf package), but the problem was not solved. Does anyone has any idea of what is wrong? Please help me, this problem is driving me crazy! -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
