Path Name:  /hp-ux_patches/s700_800/10.X/PHSS_7034

Symptoms:
        PHSS_7034:
        xdialog continued to work as HP-UX went from 9.X to 10.X
        even though the migration was not supported officially.
        A Japanese customer used an un-supported feature of
        xdialog to display Japanese characters in a message window.
        When the customer migrated to 10.01, xdialog failed to
        display Japanese characters correctly.

Defect Description:
        PHSS_7034:
        The currently shipped version of xdialog is linked to
        X11R5 and Motif1.2.  This change seems to have broken
        whatever allowed Japanese characters to appear correctly
        for 9.X.

Installation Instructions:
        Please review all instructions and the Hewlett-Packard
        SupportLine User Guide or your Hewlett-Packard support terms
        and conditions for precautions, scope of license,
        restrictions, and, limitation of liability and warranties,
        before installing this patch.
        ------------------------------------------------------------
        1. Back up your system before installing a patch.

        2. Login as root.

        3. Copy the patch to the /tmp directory.

        4. Move to the /tmp directory and unshar the patch:

                cd /tmp
                sh PHSS_7034

        5a. For a standalone system, run swinstall to install the
            patch:

                swinstall -x autoreboot=true -x match_target=true \
                        -s /tmp/PHSS_7034.depot

        5b. For a homogeneous NFS Diskless cluster run swcluster on the
            server to install the patch on the server and the clients:

                swcluster -i -b

            This will invoke swcluster in the interactive mode and
            force all clients to be shut down.

            WARNING: All cluster clients must be shut down prior to the
                     patch installation.  Installing the patch while the
                     clients are booted is unsupported and can lead to
                     serious problems.

            The swcluster command will invoke an swinstall session in which
            you must specify:

                alternate root path  -  default is /export/shared_root/OS_700
                source depot path    -  /tmp/PHSS_7034.depot

            To complete the installation, select the patch by choosing
            "Actions -> Match What Target Has" and then "Actions -> Install"
            from the Menubar.

        5c. For a heterogeneous NFS Diskless cluster:

                - run swinstall on the server as in step 5a to install
                  the patch on the cluster server.

                - run swcluster on the server as in step 5b to install
                  the patch on the cluster clients.

        By default swinstall will archive the original software in
        /var/adm/sw/patch/PHSS_7034.  If you do not wish to retain a
        copy of the original software, you can create an empty file
        named /var/adm/sw/patch/PATCH_NOSAVE.

        Warning: If this file exists when a patch is installed, the
                 patch cannot be deinstalled.  Please be careful
                 when using this feature.

        It is recommended that you move the PHSS_7034.text file to
        /var/adm/sw/patch for future reference.

        To put this patch on a magnetic tape and install from the
        tape drive, use the command:

                dd if=/tmp/PHSS_7034.depot of=/dev/rmt/0m bs=2k

Special Installation Instructions:
        Important note:
        THIS PATCH IS A SPECIAL WORKAROUND FOR UNSUPPORTED
        SOFTWARE.  NO MORE WORK WILL BE DONE ON XDIALOG.
        XDIALOG, XCAL, XHPCALC AND DATEBOOK WILL NOT BE
        AVAILABLE AT ALL AFTER 10.20.
        If xdialog does not work for you now, replace it with this
        patch; otherwise, you do NOT need the patch.
        An undocumented font list resource was delivered into later
        versions of X11R4 for the Motif1.1 library.  This resource
        is known to exist in HP-UX 10.01, because it is included
        as a standard resource.
        When using xdialog with Japanese characters, the font must
        be specified on the command line.
        Do NOT use the "font" option;
        Begin the call to xdialog with
           xdialog -xrm "fontList: *jpn12*" ...
        The command
           xfontlist | grep jpn
        should provide a list of valid font names.
