I don't know about KDE konsole, but I'm using uxterm from the xterm package, and a UTF-8 environment, and it all pretty much just works... Here's my /etc/environment: LANG=en_AU.UTF-8 And my /etc/locale.gen: en_AU ISO-8859-1 en_AU.UTF-8 UTF-8 ja_JP.UTF-8 UTF-8 You'll need some fonts installed, but I have commented out all the font options in my .Xresources, so I guess my uxterm is picking a good enough one by default... I just grabbed all the Japanese fonts I could see in apt-cache search. がんばって！ -- ----------------------------------------------------------- Paul "TBBle" Hampson, MCSE 7th year CompSci/Asian Studies student, ANU The Boss, Bubblesworth Pty Ltd (ABN: 51 095 284 361) Paul.Hampson@Anu.edu.au "No survivors?
