[Fedora-i18n-list] Japanese also almost working... Now fonts are toasted too

[D M]

Hello,

I've been lurking in the background here with the same problem as "morpheus" & 
following along as you folks suggest fixes.  I too almost have Japanese input 
working -- am running KDE with the language set to English, but  would like 
to have Japanese input for the occaisional email and web search...  Anyway, 
I've come closest now with the version 11.4-60 packages.  At least an input 
window appears in the KDE apps...

But, when I installed those RPMS I also installed the Sazanami fonts...  And 
now I don't seem to be able to see anything in Japanese.  I think my truetype 
Japanese fonts may have become corrupted...  They appear as blank squares in 
KDE apps and mozilla actually crashes if I attempt to go to a Japanese 
webpage now!  Any hints on how to figure out what happened would be 
appreciated...  If I pop up xfontsel I can see some of the Japanese x fonts, 
but don't really know how to evaluate what's going on with the truetype 
fonts...

I have tried uninstalling the Sazanami fonts, and re-installing 
ttfonts-ja-1.2-34 without success.  I've also tried reverting back to the 
11.4-46.svn1587 IIim packages, and of course that didn't affect the 
problem...

Thanks!
