I made some experiments and i mean this is NOT a bug! You need to add (for example) LANG=en_us in your /etc/environment. This should fix your trouble. The bug i saw is in any gnome package and has nothing to do with locales. Timo -- Nothing is impossible! You only need to know the way and price. :-) END_OF_MAIL
