problems with diacritic characters in fedora8
by Natxo Asenjo
hi,
since fedora8 I have an awkward problem. In an xterm or console
session all diacritic characters appear like this:

that is, they are replaced by blanks. In other applications like
openoffice this is not a problem.
it is awkward because I am used to using console programs like mutt
for my email, so this is something that I come across really often.
System settings: language is English; the output of locale is:
LC_CTYPE="en_US"
LC_NUMERIC="en_US"
LC_TIME="en_US"
LC_COLLATE="en_US"
LC_MONETARY="en_US"
LC_MESSAGES="en_US"
LC_PAPER="en_US"
LC_NAME="en_US"
LC_ADDRESS="en_US"
LC_TELEPHONE="en_US"
LC_MEASUREMENT="en_US"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="en_US"
LC_ALL=
I have changed the system locale to Spanish (Spain) but it does not
help (I rebooted the system for the changes to take place).
Does anybody know where I could fix this? This has worked perfectly in
fedora6 and fedora7, so I am a bit puzzled.

Self-Introduction: Asgeir Frimannsson
by Asgeir Frimannsson
Hi all,
I've been in the background on these lists for years, but just recently signed
up as a Fedora contributor. As recommended, here is my humble introduction:
I'm Asgeir Frimannsson, I live in Brisbane, Australia.. I am however not very
Aussie: I'm half Icelandic, half Norwegian, spent many of my childhood years
in Kenya, and now married to a lovely Malaysian-Chinese girl. (That should
cover the i18n/l10n aspects of my life)
For the last two years I've been persuing my PhD at Queensland University of
Technology (QUT), where my research mainly concerns translation reuse. I am
also working part-time as a software engineer at Red Hat.
I am probably a horrid translator, but I hope to help out in other areas such
as improving the translation infrastructure and tools.
cheers,
asgeir
