You need to install Chinese fonts (see above for more information), LaTeX and Chinese LaTex-macro's. You can use you favorite editor (i.e. gvim) as an editor or you can use an GUI-based program like LyX (there is a CJK enabled version of LyX called CJK-LyX, see below for a link).
- the macro's are in a package called cjk-latex for
debian
openSUSE - the macro's are in a package called CJK for
Fedora/redhat (Thanks to Brian Tung for the link)
RedHat [part of CLE - DISCONTINUED]
Mandrake, ... - CTEX (Chinese)
