Hi all,

Linux noobie question, but does Linux fully support unicode? In theory, if I copy over my 22odd meg Arial.ttf unicode font to the linux box, will it work like XBMC does now?

Bit paranoid after experiencing NAS drives with Linux that only support a single "codepage" (?) at a time

Thanks!!
Rajiv

Not sure here, but give it a try. I'd be curious to see if it works.

There's a short guide here (http://www.xboxmediacenter.com/wiki/index.php?title=HOW-TO_compile_XBMC_for_Linux_from_source_code) on how to get XBMC working for Linux.
