Puppy linux CJK font
My kanji pages refused to display their Japanese characters even though SeaMonkey browser had the requested fonts set as options !
Restarting x-server was to no avail.
Finally ignored advice to install huge WQY font package and opted for xfonts-wqy PKG with WenQuanYi Bitmap Song CJK font and no dependencies to install.
But what an ordeal : unix font horrors, decade after decade ... while we have Logtalk for any PROLOG and a Unicode OOP Icon PL for success/fail config app's ... but no, we go with "What Has Worked For Years" - even in Ubuntu -even in otherwise excellent Puppy Linux.
This issue? Occurred in a RAM-loading GRUB Puppy on an Eee PC netbook running off a USB slot SD chip. You know ... chosen for ease of use and convenience.
