Please, anyone who is non-English speaking, with some technical savvy, could you verify rebhana's observations about "debbie-sue" producing better results than "debbie"?

You need to have Easy Debian 0.9.49 or 0.9.50 installed.

Please start LXDE from the icon, as you normally do, and try to type non-english symbols into the terminal. Logout. Then, run "debbie-sue xephwm5" from the terminal, and try the same thing again. Does "debbie-sue" improve things for you?

I would like to determine how important this issue is to the wider audience of Easy Debian.
