>Could you try el_GR.utf8 (not el_GR.UTF-8 and not en_US.UTF-8)? Probably it won't make a difference but if 'locale' canonicalises differently then perhaps something else too.
It has the same behaviour as when I had set the locale to el_GR.UTF-8, BEFORE I install language-pack-el as Colin suggested. The weird characters and the non accented characters to QT Apps as I wrote on a post above. > Does it help if you put into /etc/default/locale > LC_ALL="el_GR.UTF-8" > and you export it in /etc/init.d/mountall.sh where the LANG variable exported > too? > export LC_ALL No, the same common for me problem that it is fixed when you umount/mount the ntfs disc. > Though something could still set it (back) to "C" before NTFS mount. Could you please explain me the output of "locale -a"? I am trying to troubleshoot a thing that I cannot totally understand :( What I have understood until now, is that to have properly read/write support with the ntfs-3g for other languages except English, you have to set the locale before the partition will be mounted. The problem existed for everyone because the locale was set too late so by doing a umount/mount after the locale was set the problem was fixing. After the "export LANG" line added to the /etc/init.d/mountall.sh file, the problem has been fixed for everyone except me.... [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/media/Storage$ locale -a C el_CY.utf8 el_GR.utf8 en_AU.utf8 en_BW.utf8 en_CA.utf8 en_DK.utf8 en_GB.utf8 en_HK.utf8 en_IE.utf8 en_IN en_NZ.utf8 en_PH.utf8 en_SG.utf8 en_US.utf8 en_ZA.utf8 en_ZW.utf8 POSIX What is the "C" that you also mentioned in your previous post? What is the"POSIX" line? And what are the other lines? I think that the other lines are the available locales on my system. Right? But how I was able to write Greek characters before I install the language-pack-el? Before I install that package to my system, the output of the "locale -a" didn`t include the el_GR.UTF-8 and el_CY.UTF-8 lines. That leads me to understand, that this packege installed the el_GR.UTF-8 locale to my system.
