3.19 Display of Japanese Characters under SUSE 9.3 and RHEL 4
PR WE003758 (under 2.9g fixed bugs) was caused by a recent change
to many Linux distributions, whereby the 'standard' true type
fonts for Japanese were replaced by a new set of true type fonts,
but the version of Java used by the IBM Virtual Console Software
(JRE 1.4.2) has not been updated to support these changes. A
workaround has been provided in the JRE that is bundled, installed
and used by this IBM Virtual Console Software release. This fix
depends on having the 'sazanami-fonts' package installed in the
distribution-defined default directory (i.e,
"/usr/share/fonts/ja/TrueType" on Red Hat distributions and
"/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/truetype" on SuSE distributions).
If not installed by default, then the sazanami fonts package that
came with the distribution should be installed separately. A Red
Hat version of the font .rpms can be downloaded from:
http://people.redhat.com/tagoh/sazanami/RPMS.sazanami/, if needed.
