You could probably use one of the source-based distros, like Gentoo. Would be a longer and more involved installation, but I'm not sure how else you'd get non-unicode. Other than some things not working, I'm curious how you would even know if it was ANSI-only. I'm all for personal preference, but I just can't see the effort being worth the "reward" of reduced compatibility. I specifically switched to all-unicode so that I could get foreign characters on my screen instead of non-language characters when dealing with people from different places (even locally). ~Ryan -- http://rmgraham.blogspot.com http://twitter.com/rmgraham --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Linux Users Group.
