When I try to work with any QT-based application using the locale es_ES-UTF-8@euro spanish accents and spanish letter
When I try to work with any QT-based application using the locale es_ES-UTF-8@euro spanish accents and spanish letter ñ don't work. That locale didn't exist by default so I had to create it manually before compiling glibc. I have to log in KDE using Gdm or use Gnome applications, which work well even inside KDE. Starting with Kdm, UTF doesn't work, so I think it must be an error with Kdm and the locale settings. Also, Qt based applications complain about X compatibility problems with my locale when using Kdm to log in, which doesn't happen with Gdm. I have configured locale as "es_ES-UTF-8@euro", and spanish keyboard layout with 102 keys in Xorg, Gnome and KDE. Anyways, I think it must be a Kdm bug, since both Gnome and KDE loggig with Gdm work perfectly. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Start the computer 2. Log in KDE with Kdm 3. Type in any Qt based application Actual Results: Spanish accents don't work: á,ó,ú,í,ñ... Expected Results: They should work as I have set the proper locale and selected Spanish keyboard layout both in KDE and Xorg.
