ok but is there a way to make things behave without loosing urf8 support.
in emacs, i get lots of octal char codes appearing in place of the right characters... 
this i want oo fix without loosing utf8 as such.
especially considering some web pages are made to be utf8 .

I'm not sure, although I thought the menuconfig issues had gone away with 
one update or another. Have you applied all available updates? 

One way to make it behave, is to edit /etc/sysconfig/i18n, and change:
LANG="en_AU.UTF-8" 
to
LANG="en_AU" 
(or somethine else as defined in the SUPPORTED= variable.)

Of course you do lose UTF-8 support.

You can try another font. The previous default was lat0-sun16

This can also be set in /etc/sysconfig/i18n
change SYSFONT="latarcyrheb-sun16"
to
SYSFONT="lat0-sun16"

See if that helps any.
