Chinese support on Pogoplug
December 19, 2012 12:13AM
Followed the tut: http://projects.doozan.com/debian/
and installed debain on the Pogoplug.

However I could not figure out how to enable Chinese support. I have samba shares mounted, which have Chinese file/folder names. I googled and tried many ways, such as locale.gen, nothing seem to help.

Any help?

Thanks!

I think it's best to list what I've done in my configuration, and you can compare notes. I see all the UTF-8 fonts displayed correctly.

- install locales
#apt-get install locales

- Look in /etc/locale.gen for your locale encoding and uncomment that line. For example, I want to enable US locale, so this line is uncommented:
en_US.UTF-8 UTF-8

- generate locale
# locale-gen

- install unicode fonts
# apt-get install xfonts-efont-unicode

- set UTF-8 for root user in home directory
# cat ~/.utf8
export LANG=en_US.UTF-8

- make sure it's in the root user profile
# cat .profile

. ~/.utf8
