I tried for example the following: * created some utf-8 test file with gvim * started unicode xterm like uxterm -fn '-bitstream-bitstream vera sans mono-medium-r-*-*-17-*-*-*-*-*-iso10646-1' * and tried to view the result cat test-utf8 but I sow squares only :( So may be there is something wrong with that terminals? When I used gnome-terminal and selected in menu Terminal -> Use coding -> UTF-8 and all is ok!

Maybe I have missed some earlier details, sorry if so. It seems only the two environment variables I left above MAY be of relevance for the subject. Maybe you try to change the default locale to ru_RU.KOI8-R. It seems easier and "more default" to set-up the language environment for KOI8-R. It was painless for me to use just set-language-env (from the language-env package). As for font environment in general, the output of following commands are useful: xset q (the part related to Font Path) and (if according to the default, the 1st part of the path is like unix:/7100), the "catalogue" field from /etc/X11/fs/config. Two more commands to obtain info useful for helping you are dpkg -l|fgrep font|fgrep and dpkg -l|fgrep language-env At last, did you try to launch an X term with manually specified font? xterm -fn 10x20-cyrillic & (this will use KOI8-r font). Some sysadmins in this maillist do use UTF-8, and there was some discussion of the subject here but I did not follow it. At last the package list search does not immediately yield a package with UTF-8 Cyrillic fonts. So try setting up in KOI8-R first and explore UTF option later on. Good luck!
