Registered by Andrey Zhekov

Fix unproper encodings of the base packages like samba, gnome-console (runlevel 3, and Safe Mode)
Try to consider and implement specific options after installing language-packs, i.e. proper encodings in /etc/fstab for ntfs-3g driver, CD-ROM dirves, network workstations and shares (especialy for NT network envioriments).

Whiteboard

In my case (locale ru_RU.UTF8) I made some corrections to the configs, like:
1) add iocharset=UTF8 option for mounting cdrom-drives in /etc/fstab
2) to Samba config file I added in [General] section (Russian specific options):
dos charset = cp866
unix charset = UTF8
display charset = UTF8
character set = UTF8
client code page = 866
default case = upper
preserve case = yes
short preserve case = yes

... to prevent the "????"signs apearing in the "Network" when native letters are used for naming the computers or share names.

3) to make K3b "speaking" in native (not English) language in Ubuntu I have to install one of the kde-i18n-xx packages not only the k3b-i18n one. The bad thing, that when selecting k3b installation, the kde-i18n package is not treated as needed part and no info message about it is shown.

cjwatson 2007-10-03: This is not an appropriate subject for a specification. Please withdraw this specification and instead file bug reports for the problems you are encountering.

Andrei Zhekov 2007-10-03: Thank you, got it.
