On Gentoo, the languages a program supports is controlled by the list of |
| 23 |
languages specified in the LINGUAS variable in /etc/make.conf. This is |
| 24 |
because most software can support more than one language. If your |
| 25 |
LINGUAS includes Chinese, mplayer will be compiled with support for Chinese. |
| 26 |
|
| 27 |
The language used when the program is running is controlled by the |
| 28 |
LC_ALL and LANG environment variables. This is usually set in |
| 29 |
/etc/env.d/02locale. If you can't see Chinese in your console but can |
| 30 |
in an xterm, that means your console is using a font that does not |
| 31 |
support the encoding of LC_ALL or does not have Chinese characters in |
| 32 |
it. You will need to load a console font with Chinese support. The |
| 33 |
console font is usually specified in /etc/conf.d/consolefont. |
