1. Don't use an UTF-8 locale, but some other more suitable mb encoding locale. Xlib doesn't support UTF-8 well enough; see my XF86 bug report forwarded to this list and the release notes. 2. Define -DCF_DE_USE_XUTF8 to use the Xutf8 string drawing routines instead of the Xmb routines. The problem with these routines is that the output may be more cluttered, stop drawing strings and unknown characters and so on. 3. Wait until someone writes a drawing engine that doesn't use the Xlib (i18n string interpretation is done in Xlib, not the server) string drawing routines that are unlikely to be fixed, although there's really no reason why they couldn't work with all encodings. -- Tuomo
