I ran it and it said: Your console font configuration will be updated the next time your system boots. If you want to update it now, run 'setupcon' from a virtual console. update-initramfs: Generating /boot/initrd.img-2.6.35-19-generic For each font selected in 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure console-setup' I ran 'setupcon' in a virtual terminal. All fonts seem to have appropiate support for these diacritics. I rebooted hoping to see the changes being applied after reboot (as the output of 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure console-setup' suggested). I was greeted by the same font that had missing characters (and displayed them as filled squares). This font has a different aspect than the ones that were set up by 'setupcon'. There seem to be two problems: a) there is a font with insufficient support for these characters b) the changes made by 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure console-setup' are not used by default when opening a virtual console. This on an up-to-date Maverick. You can test this on your systems by entring the "€" character in a virtual console (that's AltGr+E on my keyboard layout, YMMV). -- . ..: Lucian -- Ubuntu-devel-discuss mailing list Ubuntu-devel-discuss@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-devel-discuss
