echo $LANG C
Maybe(!) this is already the answer. Actually this setting doesn't support special characters like german umlauts (as far as I know, maybe I'm wrong).
> is it possible to type the umlauts locally on your client? Yes!
Also in your shell (xterm, dtterm - not gnome-terminal)?

I would give it a try. You can set the language environment in your login screen of your Solaris system. There is a button like "options" and there you will find a language submenu with the encodings. Due to doing this, $LANG should (hopefully) be set system wide on your desktop. If not, try to set the variable manually in a shell and then start the SGD client from that shell. (for example "export LANG=de_DE.UTF-8", but you should try the ISO settings too) Maybe the man pages for "locale" and "localedef" are also helpful.
Any idea why pressing Alt Gr beeps in a SGD client session? I does not beep when working locally!
I have no clue, sorry. Hope this helps, I don't have any other ideas. Juergen -- Juergen Arndt _______________________________________________ SGD-Users mailing list [email protected] http://www.filibeto.org/mailman/listinfo/sgd-users
