From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/4.77 [fr] (X11; U; Linux 2.4.3-smp i686) Description of problem: iso-8859-15 not supported in gnome-terminal. Since I installed redhat-7.1, I can't get the euro sign (\xa4 in ASCII). I can't figure if it is a XFree86, a xfs, or a gnome ptoblem. I tried to correct the three of them without success. How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.startx (with gnome and sawfish 2.start gnome-terminal (with police -misc-fixed-medium-r-normal-*-*-200-*-*-c-*-iso8859-15) 3. Actual Results: no way: it's iso8859-1, not iso8859-15 Expected Results: since Redhat7.0 (or upgrades for XFree?) I got the euro sign with AltGr+$ Additional info: I couldn't get it either with other xtems (or friends) before. I mean it only worked with gnome-terminal.
What locale are you using?
My locale is fr_FR
Havoc, is this a known GNOME or GNOME-term bug? Or do you think it is XFree related or perhaps just a local config issue?
Go to gnome-terminal prefs, turn off "Enable multibyte support." 8-bit fixed-width encodings don't work by default in 7.1, because we turned on Japanese support by default instead. So you have to flip the setting.
Thanks a lot!
