         Component: i18n
           Summary: problem with french_UTF8
           Version: 2.3.1.4-3mdk
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
        AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
        ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]


just after the install mandrake 9.1beta3, I run localedrake, and choose "France 
(UTF-8)" (I choose it at the beginning of the install, thanks the "advance" 
button). I see several problem : 
1)During the boot, the messages are not displayed correctly : for example, 
instead of "Amorçage", I see "Amorçage" (seems like the utf-8 message is 
displayed like an ascii message, or an iso-8859-1 message) 
2)In console mode, my french keyboard works perfectly when I'm not still 
logged. But, after logging, I can't use deadkeys and can't type letters like é, 
à or ç for example. (the keyboard seems ok in X) 
3)in the X loggin window, if I try to halt or reboot, I obtain : 
 
The system is going down for system halt NOW! 
INIT: Switching to runlevel: 0 
INIT: Sending processes the TERM signal 
 
 ;2R 
 
 
... and nothing ! I must press enter, and then type manually "halt" or 
"reboot". 
 
P.S : for information, if I'am interested in utf-8, it's because I want to use 
simultenaously french and esperanto, but that's an another story ;)
