There are several issues with gdm3 in Ubuntu, one of which has to do with the locale. Please try using a different login screen: lightdm is currently the default for 11.10. Also, the correct way to fix Gnome 3 PPA bugs now is to fix them in Oneiric since the Oneiric packages are getting downsynced to the PPA.
So, please check to see if this is still an issue in Oneiric. Note that Oneiric still has gdm 2 in the repositories; gdm 3 has not been packaged good enough to go in yet. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Team UGR, which is subscribed to ugr-meta. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/793055 Title: Umlauts missing in several Gnome Applications Status in GNOME Shell: Incomplete Status in Ubuntu Gnome Remix Metapackages: Incomplete Status in “gnome-shell” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Binary package hint: gnome-shell I installed gnome-shell and gnome-themes-standard via the gnome3 ppa [1] and it's fantastic, really good! There's only one problem, I face with gnome-shell on amd64 and i386. There are no umlauts in several gnome applications, e.g. gnome-terminal and all dialoges of update-manager and gedit. In the terminal, a "ß" is replaced by "ss" and all other German umlauts are replaced by "?". If I want to update my Ubuntu, the update-manager shows me the button "Pr?fen" (German word for "Check"). In Firefox, Eclipse and Empathy, all umlauts are working. I tried updating the language settings, but all are correctly installed. Here are the technical information: Description: Ubuntu 11.04 Release: 11.04 gnome-shell: Installiert: 3.0.2-0ubuntu1~build1 Kandidat: 3.0.2-0ubuntu1~build1 Versionstabelle: *** 3.0.2-0ubuntu1~build1 0 500 http://ppa.launchpad.net/gnome3-team/gnome3/ubuntu/ natty/main i386 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status I thought this is just a small error, but as it occurs on amd64 and i386, I think it's severe.
