Description of problem: When I boot a rawhide machine with norwegian bokmål locale I see a lot of the strings are showing the wrong letters in certain places. I think this mostly happens with norwegian "special" characters æøåÆØÅ, but I'm not 100% certain. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. Actual results: Expected results: Additional info:
What's your /etc/sysconfig/i18n look like?
[kmaraas@localhost ~]$ cat /etc/sysconfig/i18n LANG="nb_NO.UTF-8" SYSFONT="latarcyrheb-sun16" [kmaraas@localhost ~]$
There was discussion that this may be a kernel issue - does this go away with an older (or newer) kernel?
The latest kernel from rawhide didn't make a difference at least. Older kernels will help, but I can't remember exactly when this started...
how about the -rc1 kernel ? ISTR seeing something about this mentioned on lkml a few days ago.
Still seeing this in current rawhide.
Actaully, does the current rawhide/F9 update initscripts fix this? We had a bug in how we were setting the font.
Works now.
