I had the same problem once, but I was wanting to install Japanese.  Try
to install kinput2 and freewin RPMS but I think these are for Japanese. 
Spanish use roman letters right? if yes then you dont have to install
another set of fonts.  In my case I installed Japanese fonts.

Run localedrake it runs either on the command line or in xwin.
