Berry Linuxの中国語化（シリーズⅡ）

Berry Linuxは大袈裟に言うとFedora ＋　KnoppixのLinuxで、日本の方によって開発されたOSです。個人的にFedoraとKnoppixが好きで、FedoraとKnoppixのいい所をもぎ取って作られたBerry Linuxに対して、たいへん興味を持っています。Knoppixのハードウェアの自動検索機能とFedoraの豊富なパッケージの組み合わせで、自分に適したOSと認識してます。

1. 中国語フォント
   berry-0.95.iso中のBERRYファイルを見ると、日本語フォントが下の二つのディレクトリに置かれています。
   

   Bitmap

   /usr/share/fonts/japanese-bitmap-fonts/

   
   

   TrueType

   /usr/share/fonts/ja/TrueType/

   
   
   中国語のビットマップフォントは文泉驿中文点阵宋体（下载PCF格式）を利用します。
   wqy-bitmapfont-pcf-0.9.9-0.tar.gzのINSTALLファイルにインストール方法が詳しく書かれて、インストールディレクトリは/usr/share/fonts/wenquanyi/wqy-bitmapfontに推薦してあります。

               Wen Quan Yi Bitmap Song CJK Fonts
   
                     Installation Guide
   
   ----------------------------------------------------------
   
   The WenQuanYi Bitmap Song font (medium and bold weight) was
   packaged into three equivalent formats: BDF (Bitmap Distribution
   Format), PCF (Portable Compiled Format) and TTF(True-type).
   All formats are supported by most modern X-window systems
   (TTF format requires FreeType 2.x or later). You can choose
   any of them based on your preference.
   
   
   == Quick Summary ==
   
   We highly suggest you downloading our DEB (for debian-based
   systems) or RPM (for Redhat-based systems) installation
   packages. One-command-installation can be achieved by
    dpkg -i  wqy-bitmapfont-*.deb
   for deb package, or
    rpm -ivh wqy-bitmapfont-*.rpm
   For some users, the installed font can not be selected
   from font list, you may verify and make sure that a file
   named "85-wqy-bitmapsong.conf" is copied to /etc/fonts/conf.d
   directory.
   
   
   == PCF/BDF Package Installation   ==
   
   1. download
   
   You can find the installation package from
   our sourceforge download site at
   
   http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=128192&package_id=156288
   
   choose the latest release and select your preferred
   font format, save the installation file to a temporary
   directory, for example /tmp.
   
   2. decompression
   
   The package is usually a gz-ed tarball, to extract the files
   
     tar zxvf wqy-bitmapfont*.tar.gz
   
   or
   
     gunzip wqy-bitmapfont*.tar.gz
     tar xvf wqy-bitmapfont*.tar
   
   
   3. move directory (optional)
   
   You can find all extracted file under a subdirectory
   called "wqy-bitmapfont". You might want to move this
   directory to the location where you want
   to install the font, a good place is
   
   /usr/share/fonts/wenquanyi/wqy-bitmapfont
   
   To move the directory, you need to use "su" or "sudo" to obtain
   root privileges. (If you don't have root privileges, please
   refer to Section 6)
   
   4. font path setup
   
   Now you need to tell X-window where to find the installed font.
   There are two major font management mechanisms: X-core font
   and fontconfig. We will discuss the installation for
   X-core font first.
   
   Assuming you have installed the font to
   /usr/share/fonts/wenquanyi/wqy-bitmapfont/
   
   execute the follow commands
   
      su
      cd /usr/share/fonts/wenquanyi/wqy-bitmapfont/
      rm fonts.dir fonts.scale fc-cache.*
      mkfontdir .
      cp fonts.dir fonts.scale
      xset +fp /usr/share/fonts/wenquanyi/wqy-bitmapfont/
   
   the last command adds the font path to the font path
   list of current X-window session. To permanently add this path,
   you need to add
   
     FontPath     "/usr/share/fonts/wenquanyi/wqy-bitmapfont/"
   
   to /etc/X11/xorg.conf, under any line starting with "FontPath",
   for example:
   
     FontPath     "unix/:7100"
   
   if your system does not have xorg.conf, you are probabily
   running XFree86, then you should do the same thing for
   /etc/X11/XF86Config-4
   
   If you see "unix/:7100" in your xorg.conf, your X window
   is using "xfs". Typing the path to the font in /etc/X11/fs/config
   under the line "catalogue =/usr/lib/X11/fonts/misc/,"
   can do the same thing as you modify xorg.conf.
   
   Now you have done with X Core font set up. Most recent
   versions of Linux X programs support Xft/fontconfig, which
   is a set of font search/selection rules. To make fontconfig
   aware of the newly installed WenQuanYi bitmap font, you need to
   insert the following line
   
     /usr/share/fonts/wenquanyi/wqy-bitmapfont/
   
   to /etc/fonts/fonts.conf  or ~/.fonts.conf, however, if you
   installed the font into a subdirectory under /usr/share/fonts/,
   this is not required.
   
   we provided a fontconfig file specifically optimized for wqy bitmap fonts,
   named "85-wqy-bitmapsong.conf". To activate the optimized settings, you
   need to install this file as well. If /etc/fonts/conf/ directory exists
   in your system, please directly move this file to that directory. If it does
   not exist, you need to add the following line to the
   end of /etc/fonts/fonts.conf (before )
   
     /usr/share/fonts/wenquanyi/wqy-bitmapfont/85-wqy-bitmapsong.conf
   
   if you are using the latest fontconfig-2.4.x, you can also move this file
   to ~/.fontconfig/ directory, it will also do the job.
   
   After all of above steps, type "fc-cache -f -v" to update fontconfig,
   In most cases, you need to restart your X-window  in order to activate
   all the settings.
   
   
   5. test
   
   To test if the font is successfully installed, the following
   command
   
      /usr/X11R6/bin/xlsfonts  grep 'wenquanyi'
   
   
   would print something like followings (you may also see font names for gb2312/big5 etc)
   
      -wenquanyi-wenquanyi bitmap song-bold-r-normal--0-0-75-75-p-0-iso10646-1
      -wenquanyi-wenquanyi bitmap song-bold-r-normal--12-120-75-75-p-119-iso10646-1
      -wenquanyi-wenquanyi bitmap song-bold-r-normal--13-130-75-75-p-80-iso10646-1
      -wenquanyi-wenquanyi bitmap song-bold-r-normal--15-150-75-75-p-80-iso10646-1
      -wenquanyi-wenquanyi bitmap song-bold-r-normal--16-160-75-75-p-80-iso10646-1
      -wenquanyi-wenquanyi bitmap song-medium-r-normal--0-0-75-75-p-0-iso10646-1
      -wenquanyi-wenquanyi bitmap song-medium-r-normal--12-120-75-75-p-119-iso10646-1
      -wenquanyi-wenquanyi bitmap song-medium-r-normal--13-130-75-75-p-80-iso10646-1
      -wenquanyi-wenquanyi bitmap song-medium-r-normal--15-150-75-75-p-80-iso10646-1
      -wenquanyi-wenquanyi bitmap song-medium-r-normal--16-160-75-75-p-80-iso10646-1
      ....
   
   for fontconfig, you need
   
      fc-list  grep 'WenQuanYi'
   
   you would expect to see the following two lines as output
   
      WenQuanYi Bitmap Song:style=Bold
      WenQuanYi Bitmap Song:style=Regular
   
   With KDE or GNOME font selection tools, you should be able to see
   "WenQuanYi Bitmap Song" in the font name list.
   
   
   6. installation as a normal user
   
   If you do not have root privilege, for example, you are using
   public machines, to install this font is also very simple.
   If you are using KDE, find "Control Center" from the K-menu
   (or type kcontrol from console), choose "System Administration"
   and click on "Font Installer", right click on the middle panel,
   choose "add font", locate the extracted fonts (bdf/pcf) files.
   
   If you are using Gnome environment, double click on "Computer",
   type "fonts:/" on the address bar, and type enter. Open another
   file browser and select the bdf/pcf.gz font files, drag or
   copy/paste to the fonts:/ folder.
   
   If you do not have X-window started, you can also install the
   font by extracting the BDF/PCF files to ~/.fonts/ directory
   (if it does not exist, create one after making sure you have
   fontconfig installed).
   
   You may also add the following line to ~/.fonts.conf to use
   pre-set configurations
   
     /path/to/wqy-bitmapfonts/
     /path/to/85-wqy-bitmapsong.conf
   
   7. Turn on Chinese language support on your system
   
   To correctly display Chinese, your system should
   support Chinese language. You need to install the related
   packages (for example, sudo apt-get install kde-i18n-Chinese*)
   Then put the following line
   
    LC_CTYPE=zh_CN.UTF-8
   
   into ~/.i18n and reboot your system (this file may not exist, in
   that case, you need to create it first by "touch ~/.i18n".
   you can also use other locales in the output of
   "ls -d /usr/lib/locale/zh_*"). To enable command line Chinese
   message, replace "LC_CTYPE" by "LC_ALL". If you want all menu displayed
   with Chinese language, on KDE, goto "Control center", click on "Region and
   Assistance", find "Country/Region and Language", choose "Chinese" from
   "Add language"; if you are using Gnome, you need to select "Preference"
   and "Language", then add "Chinese". Restart your X or system
   if necessary to enable this setting. If you can not select "Chinese" for
   either desktop environments, you need to install the corresponding
   language package first.
   
   
   == TTF Package Installation   ==
   
   To install TTF version of Wenquanyi bitmap font is a little bit tricky.
   The font file is a special type of TTF, called SFNT (or sbit only) TTF.
   This format is supported by FreeType 2.x or later. Unfortunately,
   ttfmkdir and fc-cache can not recognize this format. So, we packaged
   hand-writen configuration files, fonts.dir/fonts.scale/fonts.cache-1,
   in the release.
   
   The installation process is very similar to PCF/BDF version, you can
   type ttmkfdir and fc-cache -fv, in that case, the hand-writen config
   files will be overwriten. You can find a font.config.tar.gz in the
   installation file, you need to decompress this file and restore
   the correct fonts.* files. In the future, anytime you submit
   fc-cache -fv, you need to repeat the above process.
   
   == RPM Package Installation   ==
   
   if your system support RPM, to use RPM package is the simplest.
   you simply type
   
   sudo rpm -Uvh wqy-bitmapfont*noarch.rpm
   
   then after restarting your X-window, you should be able
   to use this font.
   
   == Other issues   ==
   
   For some old applications, such as Emacs, XMMS, you may need to
   do some extra configurations, you can search our FAQ page for
   more details
