Hello All, I have a customer who wants to install thai language support , so he has followed the installation instructions from tyhe v4.0 installation guide.he installed the relevent subsets and checked the wwinstall.log file to make sure there were no other dependicies,but he still cannot find IOSTHUCSBASE400 because it doesn't seems to be in the ALPHA/WORLDWIDE directory.Apparently the problem is when he selects thai language support from the CDE login window all gets is strange characters. regards Roberto Romani Unix Support Sydney TSC Australia [Posted by WWW Notes gateway]

Hi, Roberto, Digital UNIX doesn't have a IOSTHUCSBASE400 subset. The UCS subsets contain Unicode locales and codeset converters and we don't have any of those for Thai. Is the main problem that when he selects Thai language support from the CDE login window, all he gets is strange characters? If so, I can help. First, let's try to pinpoint where the customer is getting the strange characters. When you select a language from the CDE login window, the window re-displays in the new language. Is that where the customer is seeing the strange characters? Or is he seeing them after he has logged in? If the login window re-displays okay and the customer is seeing the strange characters after he has logged in, see if the xnlLanguage resource is set in the .Xdefaults file. I bet it will be set to some other locale. To solve the problem, just delete the xnlLanguage setting and then login again. Tom | |||||
