Hello there, I recently upgraded to the latest navigator in Woody and tried installing netscape-ja-resource-476 to get input Japanese form buttons to display properly and to enable Japanese input. This works fine, but no matter what I try, the menu options are all gibberish. Mozilla displays Japanese fine in menus and bookmarks, so I wonder if it's a Motif problem I'm having? Anyway, I've tried variations of the following environment variable settings and Xresources:
(from my .xsession:) # Set the interface language to english, allow Japanese input export LANGUAGE=en export LINGUAS=en # Handle Characters as Japanese # May break certain things like window maker. #export LC_CTYPE=ja_JP # Format time as English export LC_TIME=C # Format numbers as English export LC_NUMERIC=C # Output messages in English export LC_MESSAGES=C # Do sorting and collating of characters as Japanese export LC_COLLATE=ja_JP # Use Japanese for all others export LANG=ja_JP # Setting the following overrides LANG and all LC_ variables # export LC_ALL=ja_JP export XMODIFIERS="@im=kinput2" (from my .Xresources:) *.inputMethod: kinput2 *.preeditType: OverTheSpot *.fontSet: -ricoh-ms\ mincho-medium-r-normal---140-*-*-*-*-*-* *.fontList: -ricoh-ms\ mincho-medium-r-normal---140-*-*-*-*-*-* Netscape.geometry: 920x680 Netscape*international: True !Netscape*font: -misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--14-* !Netscape*fontSet: -misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--14-* !Netscape*fontList: -misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--14-* Netscape*font: -ricoh-ms\ mincho-medium-r-normal--14-*-*-*-*-*-*-* Netscape*fontSet: -ricoh-ms\ mincho-medium-r-normal--14-*-*-*-*-*-*-* Netscape*fontList: -ricoh-ms\ mincho-medium-r-normal--14-*-*-*-*-*-*-* Setting the fontList resource does indeed change the appearance of the Motif menu options as promised, but still no Japanese is rendered. Instead I get a bunch of Yen symbols. Any ideas on what I could do to fix this up properly? Do you suppose this is a bug in the netscape-ja-resource-476 package? I never did try the preceeding netscape-ja-resource-475 package since it had that dependancy issue with locale-ja or whatever, so I don't know if that would have worked with my setup or not. Thanks for your time and any input! My head is beginning to spin from sifting through all those Japanese help sites on older and possibly not quite relevant issues with communicator 4.04 and Japanization... :) Steve -- Steven Mueller [EMAIL PROTECTED]
