I get the full font names in TCC, so there may be something odd with your setup
(or it's a recent regression).

As for the other, you probably don't have a Chinese font (as opposed to a Japanese font,
which won't contain all the characters used in Chinese) installed.  The one I used is
described by my distro as "WenQuanYi Hei-Ti Style (sans-serif) Chinese outline font",
has a package name of wqy-zenhei, and has a (Chinese-language) homepage with
downloads at http://wenq.org/wqy2/index.cgi?ZenHei .
