Behaviour now on my machine is that the gok's main window follows LC_ALL / LANG, but the various pop-ups (correctly) follow LC_ALL / LC_MESSAGES / LANG. The main window is the one that has six buttons labelled "composer", "window", "mouse", "activate", "GOK", "menus", "toolbar", "capture IU". The pop-ups are those that say "GOK has enabled Sticky Keys, which it requires", "you are using GOK in 'core pointer' mode", "assistive technology support is not enabled". > Please try setting the environment before running X It is currently set at the very beginning of /etc/X11/gdm/Xsession, hence setting the environment for my whole X session. > or from GDM GDM doesn't give me any UI to set LC_MESSAGES different from LANG. -- Lionel -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
