in kde you can use a shell script like (chmod 700): <-------------------------------------------- $ cat ~/.kde/env/locale.sh #!/bin/bash export LANG="de_DE.UTF-8" export LANGUAGE="de_DE:de" ---------------------------------------------> gnome pendant: <-------------------------------------------- $ cat ~/.gnomerc export LANG="de_DE.UTF-8" export LANGUAGE="de_DE:de" #export LANGUAGE="en_GB:en" ---------------------------------------------> i have asked because the xserver in lenny will ease all of this: http://packages.debian.org/changelogs/pool/main/x/xorg/xorg_7.3+14/changelog <-------------------------------------------- * Add support for $HOME/.xsessionrc. Closes: #411639 This file, if present, will get sourced during the start of your X session. This allows you to set session-wide environment variables easily for things like locale information. Patch adapted from one by Yves-Alexis Perez. Thanks also to Holger Levsen and Osamu Aoki for advice. + Adds 40x11-common_xsessionrc to /etc/X11/Xsession.d + Document this in Xsession.5 manpage + Add a NEWS.Debian entry about it + Modifies /etc/X11/Xsession to declare the location of ~/.xsessionrc. Custom versions of Xsession (like gdm's) will need an update ---------------------------------------------> </snip> > Good week!
