Hi, I'd like to know where to find more information on the /etc/environment file, I couldn't find a man page or info page for it and searching through the Debian mailing lists didn't turn anything up either.
It would be great if you could point me to some information wrt its use, which programs read it etc. The problem was that the setting in the file overturned my language choice in the gdm (xdm variant) login manager, so my desktop environment always ended up being in English (the /etc/environment default, or rather "C"). I removed the file and language choosing works now, but I'd like to know whether I've killed other parts of the system inadvertedly and whether I should file a bug report for gdm. Thank you, Yours Malte #8-)
