unslung and UTF-8 character encoding

I am trying to use svn and handle Greek characters within files and folders. The only way to do it i must
install utf-8 locale to my unslung  V2.3R63-uNSLUng-6.10-beta. "locale" is missing and I am really stuck
here. any Ideas ??? 

Regards
Iraklis

Re: unslung and UTF-8 character encoding

Γεια σου Irakli,

I had similar problems in the past with the Greek filenames. I solved them by adding the following lines to the user_smb.conf file.

/etc/samba/user_smb.conf

unix charset = UTF8
dos charset = UTF8
display charset = UTF8

Re: unslung and UTF-8 character encoding

Hi Vassili,
thanks for your tip.But I am not talking about samba. I am trying to synch my source codes from my office to my
unslung machine at home. 

unslung svn <---- > office sources svn.

Only the "default" english characters are shown and the svn proccess hangs with the greek file names.

Thanks anyway.

Re: unslung and UTF-8 character encoding


I would really also like this.

I guess we need someone to compile the module

kernel-module-nls-utf

for unslung 2.4.22.l2.3r63-r21

for us to able to read greek characters from cli.

Thanks

Re: unslung and UTF-8 character encoding

Made a cross compile machine and built it myself

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/60363804/nls_utf8.o

copy to lib\modules\2.4.22-xfs\kernel\fs\nls

and insmod nls_utf8

Setup Putty or whatever you  use to UTF-8 and select a font with greek
characters.
