Re: [expert] Euro problem, only Spanish locale?
Recently there're several posts about displaying or printing other characters (Euro sign and Japanese). In those posts I see that *archaic* charsets (ISO-8859-15) are still used. Know that Unicode was supported in the kernel in the very first versions (round 1994 or 1995 if I'm not mistaken), Linux was once a promise to a new era where charset conflicts won't exist, however, WinNT (and esp Win2k) was several steps ahead in supporting Unicode. I really hope that Linux community could promote even faster the use of Unicode. Mandrake, which is far ahead in supporting i18n and l10n, could (or should) provide solutions where Unicode is used, or encourage more people to use Cyberbit font file (the only Unicode file I know of for the moment), or even provide Unicode subrange font file as alternate solutions.

Did you read the other mail with the solution? It shows some lines you may edit in /etc/sysconfig/i18n. Also you'll have to make sure that in KDE you put ISO-8859-15 as charset. It's in the KDE controlcenter in section Personal (or is it Individual in the english menue?) in subsection Country Languages. I just did that and it works everywhere but in XEmacs.

Re: [expert] Euro problem, only Spanish locale? -- THE SOLUTION
The problem isn't at the locales, the problem is well, i don't know where the problem is exactly, but i know the solutionIt works for me (tm) Edit your /etc/sysconfig/i18n. Add the .ISO-8859-15 suffix to all entries. Logout, login, if you have the iso-8859-15 selected in kde and if your font has the ¤ (euro) your should be able to type and display it. My /etc/sysconfig/i18n looks like this: SYSFONT=lat0-sun16 LC_MONETARY=pt_PT.ISO-8859-15 #LC_CTYPE=en_IE.ISO-8859-15 LC_NUMERIC=pt_PT.ISO-8859-15 LC_MESSAGES=en_IE.ISO-8859-15 LANG=en_IE.ISO-8859-15 LC_TIME=pt_PT.ISO-8859-15 LC_COLLATE=pt_PT.ISO-8859-15 SYSFONTACM=iso15 ATTENTION: do NOT use the @euro suffix, it DOESN'T work!!! Could someone at Mandrake check this? If i use the @euro suffix i can see but i can't type the ¤, but if i use the .ISO-8859-15 suffix kde works like it should.

[expert] Euro problem, only Spanish locale?
Hi, There have been a lot of unanswered questions about the ¤ (euro) symbol support. It seems that KDE does not support it yet, at least in the Spanish locale, (it seems it works for the French and German so Mandrake feels happy already. They have some instructions in their web site about how to fix it but does not work, I assume it works for other non Spanish locales) In Gnome it works in some applications like this, evolution, but no way to get it on others like the gnome-terminal. Other problem appearing is printing ¤ once you get it on the screen. Does someone with MDK 8.1 and a non Spanish (non english / american) locale have problems with the Euro? Anyone from Mandrake out there who would enlight us on this topic? Does the ¤ work just in some locales? Thanks! Jose Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?
