How can this problem be solved? This is the problem with the incorrect settings of the Chinese Character Set solution: Download a package containing a variety of Chinese fonts, http://www.q-sheng.com

After installing RedHat with VM, I found no Chinese characters and found a solution.

Or in the edited file/etc/sysconfig/i18n in the lang = "en_US.UTF-8" for LANG = "zh_CN.UTF-8", after the system is restarted many places also show for the square, how to solve?

This is a problem where the Chinese character set is not correctly set.

Solution:

Download a package containing a variety of Chinese fonts, http://www.q-sheng.com/share/fonts.tar.gz (THUNDER download) download library, decompress to Linux System Disk usr \ share \ fonts directory.

Command is

$ Su

Password:

# Tar-xvzf fonts.tar.gz/usr/share/fonts

The package contains wenquanyi and various Chinese fonts.

Then restart the system. When entering the account and password, note that there is a Language option below. Click Select Chinese (China Mainland), then click Change Language, and then log on to the system.

When I used this method, there were two issues worth your attention:

1. I am a beginner. I don't know why, but I didn't decompress the package using commands. Then I right-click Open with "Archive Manager"-> Open Archive-> Extract in the window menu bar, select the decompressed location/usr/share/fonts and click the Extract button. (You can also right-click Extract Here and copy the extracted fonts folder to/usr/share/fonts)

2. note: The decompressed folder is a fonts folder containing three folders: truetype, type1, and X11. Do not be clever. Put these three folders in/usr/share/fonts, instead, you should put the decompressed fonts folder in/usr/share/fonts. In this way, you will learn to use RedHat Linux 5 to display Chinese characters.
