Hi
I am trying to configure to Gentoo to work with UTF8 by following this guide :
http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/utf-8.xml
I'm having some problems. I'm am trying to use the French character set, when accessing my Gentoo server from Putty (Configured to UTF8) I can type and see the words displayed correctly with the right accents in the console. If however I create a file using accents in the filename, when doing an 'ls' I see question marks where the accents should be. If I then view the contents of the directory on a windows computer via samba, the name appears correctly.
Here is the output of
locale -a
locale: Cannot set LC_CTYPE to default locale: No such file or directory
locale: Cannot set LC_MESSAGES to default locale: No such file or directory
locale: Cannot set LC_COLLATE to default locale: No such file or directory
C
POSIX
en_US.utf8
fr_FR@euro
And...
locale
locale: Cannot set LC_CTYPE to default locale: No such file or directory
locale: Cannot set LC_MESSAGES to default locale: No such file or directory
locale: Cannot set LC_ALL to default locale: No such file or directory
LANG=fr_FR.UTF-8
LC_CTYPE="fr_FR.UTF-8"
LC_NUMERIC="fr_FR.UTF-8"
LC_TIME="fr_FR.UTF-8"
LC_COLLATE="fr_FR.UTF-8"
LC_MONETARY="fr_FR.UTF-8"
LC_MESSAGES="fr_FR.UTF-8"
LC_PAPER="fr_FR.UTF-8"
LC_NAME="fr_FR.UTF-8"
LC_ADDRESS="fr_FR.UTF-8"
LC_TELEPHONE="fr_FR.UTF-8"
LC_MEASUREMENT="fr_FR.UTF-8"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="fr_FR.UTF-8"
LC_ALL=
I'm stuck, please help!
Cheers,
Lee

hello,
You specify one language doens't exist
- "locale -a" list all installed locale
- "locale" list required locale defined under /etc/env.d/02locale
Under /etc, create locale.gen file with all language like
fr_FR ISO-8859-1
fr_FR@euro ISO-8859-15
fr_FR.UTF-8 UTF-8
en_US.UTF-8 UTF-8
Type under console
locale-gen
source /etc/profile
env-update
locale-gen create all locale defined on /etc/locale.gen
