@section The window title does not display non-ascii characters
... everything look like: "Solfege \x@{0414@}\x@{0438@}\x@{0442@}..."
This is because your window manager does not display unicode fonts.
Try a window manager that can handle unicode fonts, for example metacity.
@section The program crashes at startup!
Try to start the program with the @option{--no-sound}. If the
program starts, then you probably has to check the sound setup
for your kernel. If you for example have a Soundblaster 32 and
unloads the @file{awe_wave} module, Solfege will crash when it tries
to open @file{/dev/music}.
@section ValueError: invalid literal for float():
If you want translated messages, you should only set the @env{LC_MESSAGES}
environment variable, not @env{LC_ALL} or @env{LC_NUMERIC}. If your
window manager set these variable, you can avoid the problem by running
solfege like this:
@command{LC_NUMERIC=C solfege}
You can run the @command{locale} command to see what environment
variables controlling locales are set.
@section Some menu entries are blank when I use language other than english.
If you are running Debian with glibc > 2.2, try to rerun
@command{locale-gen} as root, and maybe edit @file{/etc/locale.gen}.
@bye
