Public bug reported:

The font used for the Kubuntu 6.06 installer doesn't appear to have the
characters needed to display all of the selection & instructions in
Simplified Chinese. A lot of characters appear as big black dots instead

e.g.
When selecting a Language at the first screen, the choice for Simplified 
Chinese should read:

中文(简体)
          ^
NB: Above would only be legable if you use a Chinese font to view this.

In the Language selection list, the character above ^ is actually shown
as a big black dot.

SOLUTION
This appears to be an issue with the Installer using the DeJanSans font. Prior 
to installation, I downloaded qt3-qtconfig, ran qtconfig, and applied a font 
substitution for DeJanSans font with "AR PL SanHeiSun Uni" font (thankfully one 
of the fonts Kubuntu has loaded by default). And restarted X. Seem to have 
solved the problem
