Setting LC_ALL and LANG will change the output format of several important commands, including "date", "ps", "ls" and others. There are scripts which try to parse their output, which can break in various ways. > MM_CHARSET=ISO-8859-1; export MM_CHARSET > export TERM="cons25-iso8859-1" > export TERMCAP="/etc/termcap" Uhm, do not set TERMCAP to a filename (/etc/termcap would be wrong anyway; it's in /usr/share/misc). The TERMCAP environment variable is meant to carry a whole termcap entry, not a filename. You shouldn't set TERMCAP at all. > Still I'm unable to use the sv_SE.ISO_8859-1 specific fonts. the umlauts åäö > Anyone got a clue about what in the enviroment that i left out? Probably because you don't have the ISO8859-1 font loaded to your VGA graphics card. To do that, just set the appropriate variables in your /etc/rc.conf file, and everything will be set up for you during boot automatically.
