Failing that, have a look at /etc/sysconfig/i18n. You might try changing the LANG variable there, but that really shouldn't be necessary. What applications are you having problems with? I had changed my i18n settings at first, but I've since reverted back to the installed default. $ cat /etc/sysconfig/i18n LANG="en_US.UTF-8" SUPPORTED="en_US.UTF-8:en_US:en" SYSFONT="latarcyrheb-sun16" I had used: LANG="en_US" SUPPORTED="en_US.UTF-8:en_US:en" SYSFONT="lat0-sun16" It worked, but as I said, the problems are caused by applications, not the system. It didn't seem 'right' to fix them by changing the system setting. - -- - -Michael pgp key: http://www.tuxfan.homeip.net:8080/gpgkey.txt Red Hat Linux 7.{2,3}|8.0 in 8M of RAM: http://www.rule-project.org/ - -- -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.7 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQE+BqRZn/07WoAb/SsRAj8FAJ0bZFbjrq3E2OEWcR5gfGvGZB7/yQCeJ9VE 9/H3pDpfAkczUMQCZu/qY8w= =x4mt -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?subject=unsubscribe https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
