Hello

First, emacs is great. Its wonderful. Its amazing. Yeah, I really love
it. I could praise emacs for hours. And I wont lie and wont get tired.

Because I like it that much, I decided to use emacs on my linuX-PDA,
too. It compiles. Great. There is no obvious difference between Desktop-
and PDA-emacs, besides -geometry :)

The OS I use is called pdaXrom. It has a running XServer and a big
application feed. But I wanted to compile emacs by myself.

Now the bad news. If I start emacs and do

M-x set-input-method  ---> japanese

I can enter romanji words and I get hiragana. So I expect. But it
displays only some signs, others are missed if I type. If I go back with
the cursor, the signs appear. They are present. And I can use edict-el
to lookup the dictionary. This works, too. So it seems to be a problem
with displaying/updating the screen.

I didnt get into emacs deep. I guess, its a configuration problem or a
buggy library on my system. I did

ldd emacs

and on the pda its linked with libXaw. On my Desktop-System emacs isnt
linked against libXaw. Could this be the problem? What remains to be
done?

Am I the only one, that is become aware of this problem?

Could you send me some hints?

Thank you in advance
Enno
