Re: [newbie] Perl error message on locale
Denis, Try re-installing the gedit rpm again. it appears as though when the program installed the setup process did not complete properly. That or you could hunt down the config file that this program is reading from and manualy reset the value that is causing this error. And...we who don't use M$ or the apps thereof don't fear the image attachment that you sent. However, in the future if you want to copy and paste something from a terminal to an email message use the "middle" mouse button to paste the copied text into your composition window. When copying from the terminal window all one has to do is highlight the text. Linux automatically appends the highlighted text to the system clipboard. Then to paste the copied text into your document, or mail message simply place your cursor where you want to paste the text, press the middle mouse button, and viola! hope this helps... -- Mark ### ## ...it's not a bug, it's a feature ## Registered Linux User # 182496 ## !-- Pine 4.31 -- # On Sun, 10 Dec 2000 Dennis Myers spake passionately saying!

Thanks it appeared to solve the problem. I d/l'd the latest version of gedit and resolved some dependencies and the locale messages have gone away. Thanks for that bit of advice. On the other I am using a kensington roller ball and don't have a third button, if I click simultaneously with the left and right buttons nothing pops up. I could swear I had 3 button emulation checked, I will re check that , thanks again -- Dennis Myers registered Linux User #180842
