Description Boldizsar Nagy 2003-04-14 19:42:44 UTC
From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; hu-HU; rv:1.3) Gecko/20030410

Description of problem:
Using this setup:
[boldi@hades sysconfig]$ cat i18n
LANG="hu_HU.UTF-8"5
LC_ALL="hu_HU.UTF-8"2-3
SUPPORTED="hu_HU:hu"23
SYSFONT="latarcyrheb-sun16"

[boldi@hades sysconfig]$ cat keyboard
KEYBOARDTYPE="pc"
KEYTABLE="hu101"

part of inputrc:
set meta-flag on
set input-meta on
set convert-meta off
set output-meta on

I can not input neither udoubleacute nor any other latin2 specific chars to
mozilla. I can see the pressed char, but the form recognizes something other
character.
Also console programs can not output these chars to the tty.
If I specify to cdlabelgen a category with latin2 chars it prints instead the
given latin2 chars ("english" latin1 chars are printed well) 3-4 unreadable
characters (" " space, some cyrill chars I think).

So it is not a mozilla specific rather a system wide problem.
Tried with loadkeys -u hu commad, but is did not solve the problem.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
mozilla-1.2.1-26

How reproducible:
Always
