suse, fedora, gentoo, debian, mandrake and freebsd all have chinese 
support. If you have difficulties getting it going, I would suggest 
searching language specific mailing lists/channels and 
internationalisation (i18n) efforts.

If you have specific problems that you can't get resolved elsewhere, 
post them here and we'll attempt to assist.

Don't forget about installfests. If you need help along the lines of "I 
need help setting up $distro and $applications with zh support", it's 
quite likely that asking someone at an installfest will have good 
results. Especially if you bring said Chinese speaker to translate:)
