Subject: VT, unicode not working

Hi group,

I am trying to get ubicode output to work on the VT consoles. I have done
a lot of reading and it looks like a keRnel problem?

This script run on an X window work right:

    echo -e \
    " \t\xE2\x96\x9B\xE2\x96\x80\xE2\x96\x9C\n" \
    " \t\xE2\x96\x8C" "\xE2\x96\x90\n" \
    " \t\xE2\x96\x99\xE2\x96\x84\xE2\x96\x9F\n"

It produces:

    test-box
    ▛▀▜
    ▌ ▐
    ▙▄▟

On a VT it shows something like this:

    vt-test
    ▖▀▗
    ▌ ▐
    ▘▄▝

Any ideas on how I can fix this?? I have other examples/sample programs.
