Hi,

I was wondering, if someone could tell me, how to generate/install
all the necessary stuff to use UTF-8 locales, e.g. for English, German,
Chinese.

I am running Linux with XFree86 V. 4.1 and glibc 2.2.3.

I have tried using the UTF-8 locales that locale -a found (the only one
was for some weird reason ko_KR.utf8), and have tried generating
UTF-8 locales using localedef as described in
   http://www.icewalkers.com/doclib/howtos/Unicode-HOWTO-3.html
using
   localedef -v -c -i de_DE -f UTF8 /usr/share/locale/de_DE.UTF-8

When I try using this locale, e.g. 
        LC_CTYPE=de_DE.UTF-8 xterm
I get the error message
        Warning: locale not supported by C library, locale unchanged
(or something alike, I tried with different applications).

I'd appreciate any help or pointers to documentation.

Thanks,

Kerstin
.
