Jdk1.5 russian characters

[Vano Beridze]

Hello

I've got Fedora Core 2,
Sun jdk 1.5.0 beta2

rpm -q -a | grep KOI
fonts-KOI8-R-75dpi-1.0-6
fonts-KOI8-R-1.0-6
fonts-KOI8-R-100dpi-1.0-6

when running command

setxkbmap us,ru

I can switch beween languages with LShift+RShift

Here is the problem
I can't type russian characters in NetBeans 3.6,4.0 Beta 1 with 
jdk1.5.0beta2. Some arabic signs appear.
I can type russian characters in NetBeans 3.6,4.0 Beta 1 with jdk1.4.2_05

So it's definitely an OS and jdk1.5.0 issue.

here is the output of vi /etc/sysconfig/i18n
LANG="en_US.UTF-8"
SUPPORTED="en_US.UTF-8:en_US:en"
SYSFONT="latarcyrheb-sun16"

Thank you
