I'm not on my machine at present, but browsing in Mandrake bugzilla, it seems there are issues with UTF8. If one asks for several languagues during the installation (I did), the locales are set to use UTF8, and this breaks gtk1 apps fonts (and I see this too). So if XForms and E could be collateral victims. I'll check the fix suggested and see if this there: http://qa.mandrakesoft.com/show_bug.cgi?id=3541 (taking off the .UTF8) I'll report (maybe on Monday) if that works. Regards, Olivier.
