I su into root, and typed "yum groupinstall chinese-support",it updated about 10 packages,mostly related to openoffice-** and two fonts packages. and completed ok. but the problem still exists. it seems not related to any particluar apps. anywhere I can activate the IME（智能拼音），I have the same font problem. e.g, when I type "zhong",the first 9 characters“中种重终众钟忠衷肿“,the 2nd 9 characters”仲種終锺眾盅踵冢忪“the 3rd“鐘腫鍾塚妐蹱緟舯螽” and the fourth “妕媑尰幒彸堹狆㲴䱰",so you see in the fourth set, the first and 4th and some other display a rectangular square with code like "5995","5E52","3CB4",etc. now, I found that why from the second set characters, it is displayed with traditional Chinese characters (with some duplications with first set.), something wrong here. maybe it because I installed both Simplified and Traditional?
