Chinese language Linux distro?

[m.w.chang]

Xfree86 4.x and above supports chinese by default. I compiled Xree86 
4.2, then install mozilla-1.1. Without adding extra tools to read, one 
could  read chinese news/mail/webpages. The fonts however needs some 
anti-aliasing and there is no complete support for hkscs (some cantonese 
words that's not used by beijing or taiwan).

You will need extra packages to input chinese characters, though. CLE 
being one. http://www.cle.org.tw (couldn't remember).

some guys in news://news.linux.org.hk will occassionally answer 
questions related to chinese input and display. You should look at the 
linux user groups in china and taiwan. THey are far more enthusiastic 
than Hong Kong guys.
