For questions or problems relative to Japanese environment,
you can use debian-japanese list to get better support. :-)

Anyway, you can use Japanese on emacs20 with xfonts-cjk installed.

First, set default fontset of emacs to Japanese capable one.

~/.Xresources:

Emacs.Fontset-0:	-*-fixed-medium-r-normal-*-16-*-*-*-*-*-fontset-16
Emacs.Font:		fontset-16

Then, set 'Japanese as language-environment.

~/.emacs:

(if (featurep 'mule)
    (set-language-environment 'Japanese)
  (set-default-coding-systems 'euc-jp))

You may set language environment using menu bar.

Thats all for getting Japanese text on emacs20.
If you want to input Japanese text, some input methods are
available as debian package.
