Hi,

I've been trying to get UTF-8 running on my system following the Gentoo localization guide and the Using UTF-8 with Gentoo guide, but I seem to fail somewhere. I've tried searching the forums for answers, but I just can't seem to find any relevant thread. The problem is that even though I've followed the guides it seems that my system doesn't want to run in UTF-8 mode. I've enabled utf8 as the default NLS option and included NLS UTF8 in the kernel.

locale.gen
Code:
en_US ISO-8859-1
en_US.UTF-8 UTF-8
en_GB ISO-8859-1
en_GB.UTF-8 UTF-8
sv_SE ISO-8859-1
sv_SE.UTF-8 UTF-8
After this I ran locale-gen.

Output from locale
Code:
LANG=en_US.UTF-8
LC_CTYPE="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_NUMERIC="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_TIME="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_COLLATE=C
LC_MONETARY="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_MESSAGES="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_PAPER="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_NAME="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_ADDRESS="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_TELEPHONE="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_MEASUREMENT="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_ALL=

I have set UNICODE="yes" in rc.conf and I'm using consolefont="lat9w-16" in consolefont and have it running at boot. I also had unicode nls in make.conf before i rebuilt my entire system.
Just to show you an example I've got a folder which should show up as l'âme_immortelle but instead I get l'âme_immortelle.

Any suggestions or tips right away? Or do you need any more info about my system configuration?

Hi, can you post this plz :

Code:

# cat nano -w /mnt/gentoo/etc/conf.d/consolefont


Do you have this line enable :

Code:

CONSOLETRANSLATION="8859-1_to_uni"


Also, do you have this inside your /etc/portage/package.use

Code:

sys-libs/glibc userlocales


Do you have something inside /etc/env.d/02locales ???


When you run
Code:

# locale-gen


what happens ?

Since it's a french directory, check mine :

Code:

# nano -w /mnt/gentoo/etc/conf.d/consolefont
CONSOLEFONT="default8x9" et
CONSOLETRANSLATION="8859-15_to_uni"



Code:

# nano -w /etc/locale.gen
fr_CA ISO-8859-1
fr_CA.UTF-8 UTF-8


Code:

# nano -w /etc/env.d/02locales
LANG= "fr_CA.UTF-8"
LANGUAGE="fr_CA.UTF-8"
LC_ALL="fr_CA.UTF-8"


I had to run emerge -e system to have my system using fr_CA.UTF-8.

Here's the output from /etc/conf.d/consolefont. Does consoletranslation need to be enabled? I figured it would use it anyways since the comment says it will fall back to defaults else why.

consolefont
Code:
# consolefont specifies the default font that you'd like Linux to use on the
# console.  You can find a good selection of fonts in /usr/share/consolefonts;
# you shouldn't specify the trailing ".psf.gz", just the font name below.
# To use the default console font, comment out the CONSOLEFONT setting below.
# This setting is used by the /etc/init.d/consolefont script (NOTE: if you do
# not want to use it, run "rc-update del consolefont" as root).
#consolefont="default8x16"
consolefont="lat9w-16"

# consoletranslation is the charset map file to use.  Leave commented to use
# the default one.  Have a look in /usr/share/consoletrans for a selection of
# map files you can use.
#consoletranslation="8859-1_to_uni"

# unicodemap is the unicode map file to use. Leave commented to use the
# default one. Have a look in /usr/share/unimaps for a selection of map files
# you can use.
#unicodemap="iso01"

I didn't have userlocales as a USE variable when I installed glibc, is it mandatory?

locale-gen
Code:
S44 ~ # locale-gen
 * Generating 6 locales (this might take a while) with 1 jobs
 *  (1/6) Generating en_US.ISO-8859-1 ...                                 [ ok ]
 *  (2/6) Generating en_US.UTF-8 ...                                      [ ok ]
 *  (3/6) Generating en_GB.ISO-8859-1 ...                                 [ ok ]
 *  (4/6) Generating en_GB.UTF-8 ...                                      [ ok ]
 *  (5/6) Generating sv_SE.ISO-8859-1 ...                                 [ ok ]
 *  (6/6) Generating sv_SE.UTF-8 ...                                      [ ok ]
 * Generation complete

I appreciate the help, just let me know if you need any more info.

I think that you need to enable this line : consolefont="default8x16

Also, did you run this after locale-gen ?

Code:

# env-update && source /etc/profile

By the way, since é â are only in french, I think that you need to enable that too, with locale-gen and inside your kernel...

Code:

(*) Native language support
    (M) Base native language support
    (iso8859-1) Default NLS option
    (M) Codepage 437 (United States,Canada)
    (M) Codepage 863 (Canadien French)
    (M) NLS iso8859-1 (Latin 1: Western European Language)
    (M) NLS iso8859-15 (latin 9 :Western European Language with euro
    (M) NLS UTF8


Can you post your emerge --info by the way ?

I've got the consolefont enabled in /etc/conf.d/consolefont I just chose another font. :)
I've also ran env-update and source /etc/profile after locale-gen.

Any other ideas? :D

Did you recompile your kernel and add the fr_CA or fr_FR inside your locale.gen ?

No, that's the whole point of unicode, it contains all the needed characters (as long as the font supports it).

That's the NLS conf for my currently running kernel (2.6.27).

Yeah, that's the problem. I can't understand where I go wrong, to me everything seems correct. :?
Any other tips or suggestions would be most welcome.

Can you repost your /etc/locale.gen and /etc/env.d/02locales ?

Also, on my box, when I actived some new locales, I always rebuild my toolchain : emerge -e system

I don't know if it's related, but maybe you need to run this too, because maybe there a lot of packages that need to be recompiled to enable new locale.

/etc/locale.gen
Code:
# /etc/locale.gen: list all of the locales you want to have on your system
#
# The format of each line:
# <locale> <charmap>
#
# Where <locale> is a locale located in /usr/share/i18n/locales/ and
# where <charmap> is a charmap located in /usr/share/i18n/charmaps/.
#
# All blank lines and lines starting with # are ignored.
#
# For the default list of supported combinations, see the file:
# /usr/share/i18n/SUPPORTED
#
# Whenever glibc is emerged, the locales listed here will be automatically
# rebuilt for you.  After updating this file, you can simply run `locale-gen`
# yourself instead of re-emerging glibc.

en_US ISO-8859-1
en_US.UTF-8 UTF-8
en_GB ISO-8859-1
en_GB.UTF-8 UTF-8
sv_SE ISO-8859-1
sv_SE.UTF-8 UTF-8

/etc/env.d/02locales
Code:
LANG="en_US.UTF8"
LC_COLLATE="C"

Yeah I did an emerge -e world after I finished my current config, but I can give it another go if you think it might help.

Hi, I think that you need to add this :

Code:

fr_CA ISO-8859-1
fr_CA.UTF-8 UTF-8


Or
Code:

fr_FR ISO-8859-1
fr_FR.UTF-8 UTF-8


Inside /etc/locale.gen
Code:

# locale-gen


If it's not working, then I suggest this :

Code:

# emerge -e system && emerge -e world


You have nothing to loose to recompile your box.

No offense, but I hardly think that fr_FR and fr_CA has anything to do with my problem. As yngwin kindly pointed out earlier in the thread, the whole point with UTF-8 is that all(?) characters should be supported no matter what language your system is running. :)
But I'm giving emerge -e world a go to see if it changes anything, although i doubt it. :(

Where exactly are you looking that displays like this? Xterm? VT-1?

Can it be the terminal you work in? I have an UTF-8 system, and in some terminals (usually over a remote connexion) the accented characters are displayed, and in others they are not. Sometimes the terminal has to be forced to display UTF-8. Maybe whatever terminal/... you are typing in needs that too?
