Description
I can't type in languages other than english in contacts/messages although i have installed keyboards that support those languages. The other lanaguages work in gtk based apps such as pidgin and minimo, haven't tested on other etk ones. (except for the illume keyboard that displays them correctly)
Plus, i haven't yet checked incoming messages in other languages.
It's not a framework issue because fso now supports unicode.

Could you precise your issue here?
Is it that you can't select the keyboard, or that selecting the keyboard and typing a non ascii character fails?

Incoming messages in other languages work good (I've tested them in Russian). I have the same problem with non-ASCII characters. I've installed russian keyboard. I can choose it, it works in terminal. But in messages it doesn't work.
When I was using Om2008.9 there was no such problem. I had the same keyboard installed and worked perfectly.

I'm selecting the keyboard and typing non ascii chars shows nothing, of course it does work with gtk based apps. btw, ASCII is the past, unicode is the present...
The problem is that the applications do not show (accept?) unicode charecters.
Hope I'm clear enough ;]

We need to bump up EFL_SRCREV. At least to 380008.

Ticket should be reopened because the problem still exists in latest image (openmoko-shr-image-glibc-ipk--20090209-om-gta02.rootfs.tar.gz).
Description: Typing umlauts with illume keyboard doesn't show the typed in character in openmoko-contacts3 and openmoko-messages3. The same works perfectly in gtk apps.

I added the patch by Olof Sjöbergh from the mailing list in case someone wants to include the patch before Rasterman does it...

Hey, the patch is not up to date, there's another change in e svn.
Should only bump the version in the bb, that's all the fix needed.
this bug should be merged with #374 which includes this one and suggests solutions.

Fixed.
It's necessary to install libx11-locale and localedef.

I'm experiencing this problem again in latest unstable

Do you have a keyboard? What's your locale?
(Just read the comments and tell us the info we asked there)
comment:16 Changed 3 years ago by Beini
Oh, crap. I had installed eglibc-locale-fi, as mentioned in i18n page, but I guess that was not enough to get the correct locale.
I needed to install eglibc-binary-localedata-fi-fi and after that setting fi_FI.UTF-8 to /etc/profile worked. I can now confirm that I can input umlauts correctly.
So sorry, this can be closed again :). Maybe the i18n page needs some changes
