Basic Installation of the iDRAC6 43
Linux
If you are running Virtual Console on a Red Hat Enterprise Linux (version 4)
client with a Simplified Chinese Graphical User Interface (GUI), the viewer
menu and title may appear in random characters. This issue is caused by an
incorrect encoding in the Red Hat Enterprise Linux (version 4) Simplified
Chinese operating system. To fix this issue, access and modify the current
encoding settings by performing the following steps:
1
Open a command terminal.
2 Type “locale” and press <Enter>. The following output is displayed.
LANG=zh_CN.UTF-8
LC_CTYPE="zh_CN.UTF-8"
