[07:24] <nathariel> Hi guys.. What is the right way of setting up Ubuntu Server so that Japanese characters are displayed properly in the console ?
[07:27] <hito_jp> nathariel: use fbterm.
[07:29] <hito_jp> Probably, you can get help at http://server-setting.info/debian/debian-console-japanease.html
[07:32] <hito_jp> *BUT*, I cloud not openly suggest this way. In many cases(by historical reasons), server's console are expect as LANG=C or LANG=en_US.UTF-8.
[07:42] <nathariel> hito_jp: thanks, I will take a look
[07:44] <nathariel> my problem is that I have some bash scripts that crunch mysql data directly and nothing seems to be working correctly when the data is in japanese
[07:48] <hito_jp> hmm.. "japanese" means "default-character-set = utf8" ?
