Hi Chrys, Make sure you also have a good set of japanese fonts. I don't much about the implementation of japanese support in Linux but I'm using SUSE Linux 10.0 and I have no problems with japanese fonts (although I can't write Japanese on the Konsole, I can paste japanese on it and use them command line instructions) I can write on japanese on most (GTK?) apps using SCIM-anthy.
