You may want to check out what's written here:

http://www.hp.com/workstations/support/documentation/technotes/linux/localization.html
    hp VISUALIZE Workstations - Linux Localization

It may contain the solution for you, or it may not, I have't read in detail.
On http://channel.debian.de/ there could be a description as well, not sure
