How to enable the patch? #1

I've been able to add the patch to the kernel and the the new kernel size and tbe .config file show that it's there, but shen trying to use non-ascii glyphs (specially braille patterns) I get a space instead. Is there any other step I must to do to enable the cjktty font by default?

It's enabled by default, but I don't know whether it included a braille pattern font or not. From my understanding it only has CJK fonts, not full unicode. BTW this PKGBUILD is far behind the mainline kernel, I use linux-lily kernel myself which has this patch included.

I reviewed the BMP and it include the braille patterns ;-) Point is that they are not shown :-( Is there any other way I can be able to check it?

I'm using mainline kernel patched with the CJKTTY patch so there's no problem here, I just want to know how can I be able to use it on NodeOS. I've found so far that maybe I need to use the "vt.default_utf8=1" kernel argument on boot, could it be?

I'll take a look at linux-lilly until your response.

Greetings, Jesús.

I don't know these kernel arguments, sorry. I can test it with

echo "\xe4\xbd\xa0\xe5\xa5\xbd"

and it should show 你好.

For linux-lily, here is a prebuild package (for archlinux): http://repo.archlinuxcn.org/x86_64/linux-lily-4.4.3-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz and its PKIGBUILD can be found here: https://github.com/archlinuxcn/repo/tree/master/linux-lily

Great, I'll give it a try ;-) Hope Javascript don't mangle them too much... :-P

Thank you! :-D
