Make a general bug report possible, because there are a lot of times there is no way to know what is causing the issue... On to the bug. Ubuntu 12.04 changes to Chinese, and using the language suport system in system settings gets you nowhere. It absolutely will not change it back to English. I did not want, nor did I try to change it to Chinese, it did so after a boot up. I found the solution to this problem, but that does not mean the bug is solved, and so I am posting this. The solution right now, is stated here: http://dennygoot.blogspot.com/2012/07/ubuntu-1204-changes-to-chinese-with-no.html Please help us remove this bug.
