Hi Carsten,

Thanks for the various replays; right now I changed the font and using
let's say DejaVu, the behavior is gone.

its not a matter of utf8 compatibility - just not having russian characters.
changing the font in the theme is a bit of an extreme solution. you could have
just used e17's font config dialog.

read the dialog - follow the instructions. kdm is your problem :) e ships an
enlightenment.desktop with the correct commands to run.

you need to change e's font config to use sans instead of bitstream vera and it
should work. its just a matter of the default font config not suporting every
possible font character.

that .desktop is not the one we ship with e then - as it uses
enlightenment_start. it WORKED with previous versions but was not the right way
to do it - i finally added checks in to make sure people do it the right way.

Hi.
It seems to me, that default enlightenment font (Vera or smth) is not
utf-8 compatible.

I changed fonts in default theme and recompiled it. Now all cyrillic
characters are ok.

You can also change fonts though Configuration Panel -> Fonts as well.

Best regards, ptomaine//

Hi Justin and thanks for the reply.

The enlightenment.desktop file in which Exec and TryExec are pointing
directly to /opt/e17/bin/enlightenment worked with a previous cvs
version of e17 I installed.

For the second question I'll wait hoping in some developers reply for
the behavior in question.
