Re: Cyrillic fonts in X Window. (fwd)
Actually I cannot get it to work also with xterm*locale: true. But never mind, because having solved the cyrillic input I would have to solve the chinese input, which I also need, and in xterm seems to be quite problematic to have all of this together (scim input does seem to work only with gtk or qt apps, or course there is uim...). This is why I use roxterm instead, where everything works out of the box.

Re: Cyrillic fonts in X Window. (fwd)
Those of us using keymaps not being listed in base have similar problem. I use setxkbmap command for X, namely: $setxkbmap us $setxkbmap hr $setxkbmap sr So I can switch back from Serbian / Croatian to US keyboard once I need to type the command that should be understood by the system.

Re: Cyrillic fonts in X Window. (fwd)
On my system, to use cyrillic in X I did not add any cyrillic fonts, but just these lines in xorg.conf (InputDevice section): Option XkbLayout us,ru(winkeys),de Option XkbOptions grp:lwin_toggle Option XkbVariant nodeadkeys This way you can toggle the russian keyboard with the left Windows key. It does not work with xterm just like that, you need uxterm or you can use roxterm or gnome-terminal etc. On Sat, 5 Sep 2009, 4625 wrote: This problem still exist yet.

Re: Cyrillic fonts in X Window. (fwd)
Well, I could never get cyrillic to work in xterm either, but only in gtk or qt apps. I don't know why it is, maybe it has to do with the lack of locale. So I just gave up long ago trying to use xterm (mlterm has the same issue) for this. Sorry I cannot be of any better help. If anybody know how to solve this I'd be very interested to know too.

If anybody know how to solve this I'd be very interested to know too. Anyway, thanks for to pay attention to. DESCRIPTION xlsfonts lists the fonts that match the given pattern. And command 'xlsfonts *koi8-r*' will display 962 matched items (for example '-cronyx-helvetica-medium-o-normal--18-180-75-75-p-98-koi8-r') which one, I assume, should be available for any apps. If so, then why xterm may does not display cyrillic in case when 'xterm*faceName' option given in ~/.Xdefaults? Finally, I have found the answer! xterm*faceName: courier xterm*faceSize: 22 XTerm*locale: true XTerm.vt220.renderFont: true Someone, please add this issue to FAQ.
