English language in console
In Ubuntu 7.04 I use KDE's Konsole program to access the CLI. The default language of my system is Hebrew, as is the KDE desktop, but I'd prefer that the console be English only. How does once configure that? Here is an example of Hebrew output in Konsole: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ sudo apt-get install vmware-server vmware-tools-kernel-modules Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done The following extra packages will be installed: libssl0.9.7 netkit-inetd vmware-server-kernel-modules vmware-server-kernel-modules-2.6.20-16 vmware-tools-kernel-modules-2.6.20-16 החבילות החדשות הבאות הולכות להיות מותקנות: libssl0.9.7 netkit-inetd vmware-server vmware-server-kernel-modules vmware-server-kernel-modules-2.6.20-16 vmware-tools-kernel-modules vmware-tools-kernel-modules-2.6.20-16 0 משודרגים, 7 מותקנים חדשים, 0 יוסרו ו-4 לא ישודרגו. צריך לקבל 85.3MB מתוך הארכיונים. אחרי פריסה 145MB נוספים יהיו בשימוש. Do you want to continue [Y/n]? y I'd like that all to be in English. How? Thanks in advance. Dotan Cohen http://lyricslist.com/ http://what-is-what.com/

Dotan Cohen http://lyricslist.com/ http://what-is-what.com/ Check out the LC* environment variables ( set | grep ^LC ) - if you re-export the relevant LC variable and set it into English, you'll get what you want. Do note that you're changing a user during this operation and you might be overwriting those variables when you do that; So I suggest you won't use sudo while you're testing this (but use su instead) - and when you're OK with the results, incorporate this into your shell's rc file. -- Shimi To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word unsubscribe in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
