"Text rendering" Always with mandrake 9.0 The object area without font's attribute show false character but if the content is saved in a file and if we print this content (cat or other), the characters are correct. The command kbd_mode shows that in KDE we are in raw mode and if we use kbd_mode on the linux console before to start KDE, we are in Xlate mode (ascii). These informations to help anyone who wish determine the cause of troubles in the accentuated letters with mandrake 9.0 Thanks a lot, Gabriele. Luc
