Well, the point is that my ~/.pam_environment is modified (even if it is write-protected, funny) when I connect through the session manager (which is lightdm), and precisely at that moment (I did monitor this on tty1), but not when I connect on console mode (on tty1, for example). And even now that I found the way to correct the language setting (by selecting it in the language selector of the session manager), I have to do it at each connection (it is set back to English) - in fact, I found that the session's type is correctly kept on both my computers, only the language is a problem. Otherwise (if it let English), the two first lines of my ~/.pam_environment are modified (to LANGUAGE=en \\ LANG=en_US.UTF-8). I add an archive with my current versions of /etc/environment and ~/.pam_environment.
And, at last, even now that I corrected the language setting, I found out that some translation are missing (update manager, synaptic, Gimp, evince, emacs, calculator, ...). I think I did not have this problem when I connected before (but I may be mistaken). The language setting does not seems correct, in fact: gnome-language-selector still shows English on top, and French at the bottom (and thus grey)... I however have some (about a half) of the main menu items in French... As a conclusion, it only partially works with my turnaround. ** Attachment added: "envir.tbz" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/language-selector/+bug/1276072/+attachment/3969887/+files/envir.tbz -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1276072 Title: Language selection always falls back to English To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/language-selector/+bug/1276072/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
