[end melodramatics] i am working for a japanese-owned company and am the only one using mandrake here. it is one of the reasons why i cannot make my officemates try linux here in the office. Japanese language support is pretty much a black art to me right now. i can receive email with " alias sy='export LC_CTYPE=ja_JP.eucJP sylpheed;sylpheed &' " but aside from that i cant do anything in nihongo. im using an english QWERTY keyboard so it would be beneficial if there would be a mandrake how-to to enable me to work in english or japanese like in Windows (the reason why i dual-boot here in the office). Wine is out of the question. i found somebody in the sylpheed mailinglist that can write in mandarin while still maintaining an english linux installation. he said the principles were the same but he was using some chinese-centric applications. as far as using japanese while maintaining an english installation (aside from the TWO Mandrakes solution)...
