For simplicity I've put the settings into /etc/environment, so that's going to affect *everything* now ;) Thanks for the tip, I can get the cyrillic letters now in UTF-8.

Say, in the console > where I run startx from, before X even starts? Set it to UTF-8 outside xterm. For example set it in some xterm, then start in this xterm another xterm. The new xterm should be able to accept Cyrillic. If you set LC_CTYPE in a xterm this affects only programs started in it, but not the xterm itself. Anton Zinoviev, [EMAIL PROTECTED] P.S.
