I've followed the configuration instructions you mentioned to change locales (I guess it would be similar under Kubuntu), however, my LANG variable is still set as en_US.UTF-8 as are a number of other LC vars. The only change is that of the addition of a LANGUAGE var which is set to en_GB:en. Any idea where these other settings are configured and how I can get them changed?<BR/><BR/>Thanks,<BR/><BR/>Andy.rascassianhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16695697166128439341noreply@blogger.com
