[Grml] Thai characters are displays as squares

[Chaitat Pi]

Oops... the hostname "grmlsucks", I don't mean to imply anything bad about
Grml. I just name my every machine with "sucks" as the suffix. It really
doesn't describe the quality of any operating system. I love Grml and I
run Grml for many years already throughout my office.

Thanks

Dear Grml
I thoroughly understand that Grml doesn't support installation on harddisk
(grml2hd). It is ok if you won't fix it. I just would like to inform
you. And if it is easy to fix, I just wish maybe you would consider it.
Grml 2012.05 32-bit
Running as a live system, inside grml-x, it displays Thai characters
properly as in screenshot grml-x-livecd.png .
Running from harddisk (grml2hd), inside grml-x, it doesn't display Thai
characters properly. It shows square letters instead as in screenshot
grml-x-grml2hd.png .
This has never happened before with other version of Grml I have been
using (grml2hd).
I just think that grml2hd just installs the same state as the running live
Grml into harddisk. Maybe there are some more complex tasks involved?
Maybe it is easy to fix? Maybe not?
As I already mentioned above, I won't be upset if you won't fix this.

I love Grml.

grml 2011.12 (32-bit) also has the same issue
grml 2010.04 (32-bit) doesn't have this problem and it ships with my
favourite wmii, so I guess I will stick with 2010.04 until later :)))

Hmm... the window manager in 2011.12 and 2012.05, It doesn't look like a
keyboard friendly window manager ... or I need to research more of how to
use keyboard with it? I thought wmii, dwm or awesome are more text-based
tools *_*

Thanks
