I've got Netbeans 3.5 running on Gentoo Linux jdk1.4.2 The problem is that I can't type russian characters. I could type them in RedHat8 To narrow down the problem Here is the snip from my /etc/X11/XF86Config Section "InputDevice" Identifier "Keyboard1" Driver "Keyboard" Option "XkbLayout" "us,ru" Option "XkbOptions" "grp:shift_toggle" EndSection I can type russian characters in Mozilla 1.4 when pressing LShift+RShift, but in NetBeans some strange characters are typed. The Editor font is Monospaced 12 Plain. Next, in my /opt/sun-jdk-1.4.2/jre/lib/font.properties monospaced.0=-b&h-lucidatypewriter-medium-r-normal-sans-*-%d-*-*-m-*-iso8859-1 monospaced.1=--standard symbols l-medium-r-normal--*-%d-*-*-p-*-urw-fontspecific xlsfonts | grep lucidatypewriter-medium-r-normal-sans-12 -b&h-lucidatypewriter-medium-r-normal-sans-12-120-75-75-m-70-iso10646-1 -b&h-lucidatypewriter-medium-r-normal-sans-12-120-75-75-m-70-iso10646-1 -b&h-lucidatypewriter-medium-r-normal-sans-12-120-75-75-m-70-iso8859-1 -b&h-lucidatypewriter-medium-r-normal-sans-12-120-75-75-m-70-iso8859-1 -b&h-lucidatypewriter-medium-r-normal-sans-12-120-75-75-m-70-iso8859-10 -b&h-lucidatypewriter-medium-r-normal-sans-12-120-75-75-m-70-iso8859-10 -b&h-lucidatypewriter-medium-r-normal-sans-12-120-75-75-m-70-iso8859-13 -b&h-lucidatypewriter-medium-r-normal-sans-12-120-75-75-m-70-iso8859-13 -b&h-lucidatypewriter-medium-r-normal-sans-12-120-75-75-m-70-iso8859-14 -b&h-lucidatypewriter-medium-r-normal-sans-12-120-75-75-m-70-iso8859-14 -b&h-lucidatypewriter-medium-r-normal-sans-12-120-75-75-m-70-iso8859-15 -b&h-lucidatypewriter-medium-r-normal-sans-12-120-75-75-m-70-iso8859-15 -b&h-lucidatypewriter-medium-r-normal-sans-12-120-75-75-m-70-iso8859-2 -b&h-lucidatypewriter-medium-r-normal-sans-12-120-75-75-m-70-iso8859-2 -b&h-lucidatypewriter-medium-r-normal-sans-12-120-75-75-m-70-iso8859-3 -b&h-lucidatypewriter-medium-r-normal-sans-12-120-75-75-m-70-iso8859-3 -b&h-lucidatypewriter-medium-r-normal-sans-12-120-75-75-m-70-iso8859-4 -b&h-lucidatypewriter-medium-r-normal-sans-12-120-75-75-m-70-iso8859-4 -b&h-lucidatypewriter-medium-r-normal-sans-12-120-75-75-m-70-iso8859-9 -b&h-lucidatypewriter-medium-r-normal-sans-12-120-75-75-m-70-iso8859-9 I downloaded rpm files from redhat ftp site containig russian fonts, converted them to tar.gz and extracted font files, and now xlsfonts | grep lucidatypewriter-medium-r-normal-sans-12 -b&h-lucidatypewriter-medium-r-normal-sans-12-120-75-75-m-70-iso10646-1 -b&h-lucidatypewriter-medium-r-normal-sans-12-120-75-75-m-70-iso10646-1 -b&h-lucidatypewriter-medium-r-normal-sans-12-120-75-75-m-70-iso8859-1 -b&h-lucidatypewriter-medium-r-normal-sans-12-120-75-75-m-70-iso8859-1 -b&h-lucidatypewriter-medium-r-normal-sans-12-120-75-75-m-70-iso8859-10 -b&h-lucidatypewriter-medium-r-normal-sans-12-120-75-75-m-70-iso8859-10 -b&h-lucidatypewriter-medium-r-normal-sans-12-120-75-75-m-70-iso8859-13 -b&h-lucidatypewriter-medium-r-normal-sans-12-120-75-75-m-70-iso8859-13 -b&h-lucidatypewriter-medium-r-normal-sans-12-120-75-75-m-70-iso8859-14 -b&h-lucidatypewriter-medium-r-normal-sans-12-120-75-75-m-70-iso8859-14 -b&h-lucidatypewriter-medium-r-normal-sans-12-120-75-75-m-70-iso8859-15 -b&h-lucidatypewriter-medium-r-normal-sans-12-120-75-75-m-70-iso8859-15 -b&h-lucidatypewriter-medium-r-normal-sans-12-120-75-75-m-70-iso8859-2 -b&h-lucidatypewriter-medium-r-normal-sans-12-120-75-75-m-70-iso8859-2 -b&h-lucidatypewriter-medium-r-normal-sans-12-120-75-75-m-70-iso8859-3 -b&h-lucidatypewriter-medium-r-normal-sans-12-120-75-75-m-70-iso8859-3 -b&h-lucidatypewriter-medium-r-normal-sans-12-120-75-75-m-70-iso8859-4 -b&h-lucidatypewriter-medium-r-normal-sans-12-120-75-75-m-70-iso8859-4 -b&h-lucidatypewriter-medium-r-normal-sans-12-120-75-75-m-70-iso8859-9 -b&h-lucidatypewriter-medium-r-normal-sans-12-120-75-75-m-70-iso8859-9 -b&h-lucidatypewriter-medium-r-normal-sans-12-120-75-75-m-70-koi8-r -b&h-lucidatypewriter-medium-r-normal-sans-12-120-75-75-m-70-koi8-u -b&h-lucidatypewriter-medium-r-normal-sans-12-120-75-75-m-70-koi8-ub Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3.

Opened ages ago as I see... I think you have KOI8-R locale. Right? Try using sollutions suggested here: http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php?t=109255 -- Create file /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/locale/koi8-r/Compose with this content: Код: # # koi8-r Compose Sequence # # Sequence Definition # # $XFree86: xc/nls/Compose/koi8-r,v 1.2 2001/04/26 21:09:40 dawes Exp $ # # This file currently has no entries.

Any update on this issue?
I don't use gentoo right now. Unfortunately nobody reacted on this bug in a timely manner so I was forced to switch to RedHat again. I will close the issue and after I install 2004.0 (when it will be available) I will test the issue and reopen it again if needed.
