Under FC1 the following did it for me (dual-boot with Windows 2000 Pro): edit /etc/sysconfig/i18n and add to the corresponding lines: LANG="de_DE@euro" SUPPORTED="de_DE@euro:de_DE:de" SYSFONT="lat0-sun6" SYSFONTACM="iso15" I am not sure about the sysfont in FC2 (I remember FC2 does not need/understand it), and for you it is of course not the german version. But I just wonder, because under FC2 I could transfer anything from W2k to FC2 without a problem with fonts. Maybe you have to google a bit for french (?) settings. Good luck, and if it works and you love your girl friend as well, so everything might work out smoothly. Regards, Markus
