Description kb0000 2004-11-10 18:08:08 UTC
after intalling fedora core 3 (updated a fully updated fedora core 2
to fedora core 3 and updated that one too) openffice 1.1.3 (installed with
installer, not FC3 rpms) does not accept localized characters such as (&aring;
a&auml; &ouml;) instead it displays various crap.

i tried reinstalling openoffice 1.1.3, no change.
keyboard is set to swedish. the same charachters work fine in other
aplications.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
1.1.3

How reproducible:
Always

this also happens with openoffice 1.9.60 (1.9.m60)

please se th eattachemnt to see how the charachters should look and looks.

probably the keycode vs keysym problem -> see issue 32772

workaround export USE_XOPENIM=true
If not, please reopen.
