Don't know if this'll help you, so here goes nothing... Don't know if you are using gdm to log in, but it took me quite some time to figure out that gdm sets the locale for you when you log in. It defaults to use the locale you used at your previous login and I kept on ending up with C no matter what I put in /etc/environment. All that was needed was to tell gdm to use another locale for one login, and voila! /M -- Magnus Therning ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
