Hi. I'm trying to write some Japanese in LFS, but the only way for me is to open the list and click on each of the letters. If I try to write using the keyboard the letters I write gets replaced with "?". That also happens if I write something in a writing program and try copypasting it into LFS. From what I heard it doesn't support Microsoft IME so I need to get a Japanese keyboard or something? I don't remember. Can anyone explain? (Maybe I'll remember it this time)

Have a look in this thread: http://www.lfsforum.net/showthread.php?t=15609 The issue with ??? appearing instead of the Japanese characters seemed to be solved; have a look at this this post: http://www.lfsforum.net/showthread.php?p=689678#post689678

make sure u have Japanese IME Keyboard and Language regional settings on your operating system and ur settings of Latin 1 must be in Japanese like this



If you have setup your regional and language settings here is the sample of Japanese Keyboard

Thanks, Silverracer. I'll try it out when I get home.

ありがとうか、いじょうせんせい. But as you see I've done that already. I'm not sure if I've done it right though. At least this is how it looks like on my work PC, and I have the same settings at home.

is your settings is like that? you need to change your input mode and show that language bar and make a hotkey to activate the japanese kb

Thanks. I'll try it out later.

Maybe I should buy a sheet of these to stick to my keyboard. (shipping costs more....)

Edit: I tried setting the language to non-unicode programs to Japanese, and it worked. Thanks

However until I learn some Japanese letters I think I'll change it back for now. I don't understand anything of what the Intel RAID program is trying to tell me.
