Debian Configuration :: Cannot Change Locale
Jul 12, 2015I have setup a VPS @ Strato with Linux Wheezy.Since I'am in the Netherlands I got a Dutch language package installed.I like to setup into englisch all the way.Via dpkg-reconfigure locales I have installed en_GB.UTF-8 UTF8 language packages and deïnstaled nl_NL.utf8
Generating locales (this might take a while)...
en_GB.UTF-8... done
Generation complete.
But a lot of the commands are still in Dutch like: h2458377:~# uitgelogd.And quite often I got:
-su: warning: setlocale: LC_ALL: cannot change locale (nl_NL.utf8)
How do I get ripped off this error?Just working with/on the command line
Ubuntu :: Wrong Locale \ Go Back To English, The Locale Doesn't Change Back, Only The Menus Are In English?
Mar 5, 2011I recently installed language packs for Japanese and changed my system language to it, too. The problem is, now that I try to go back to English, the locale doesn't change back, only the menus are in english. "Apply system wide" in the Language Support didn't do anything; Firefox is in japanese too. Here is my locale output:
LANG=ja_JP.utf8
LANGUAGE=en_US:en
LC_CTYPE="ja_JP.utf8"

Ubuntu Installation :: Can't Create Japanese Locale: Get A Segmentation Fault On Generating Locale?
Oct 13, 2010Maverick 10.10 is unable to create Japanese locales on my wife's laptop (Acer Aspire 3000). This machine previously had no such problem. The install is a fresh install, since the machine froze during the upgrade (no fault of Ubuntu's). A possible complication is that it froze several times more during the install, and I have gone through many recovery boots and iterations of dpkg configure. All relevant packages are installed, I believe. Everything else works. Through System, Administration, Language Support, I have installed all components of English and Japanese. Currently English is selected. Japanese should appear in the list but does not. Japanese text appears properly, and I can write in Japanese,But all the menus are in English. Fine by me, but my wife will want Japanese when she uses the computer again (not soon).This mostly likely is a glibc/libc6 problem, as far as I can tell. I can't find any other Ubuntu user with this problem recently.And now, some outputs:1. dpkg-reconfigure locales
sudo dpkg-reconfigure locales
Generating locales...
en_AG.UTF-8... done

Ubuntu :: Push Locale Configuration To A Lot Of Clients?
Sep 1, 2011I want to ask a question regarding on the "locale" problem. I've searched a lot on Google, but I think there is no detailed information and logic explained this topic well. Someone may suggest use Preference->Administration->Language Support to add or change whatever language I want. I can't use this way beacuse:
1. I need try to push locale configuration to a lot of linux clients.
2. I want to know the detailed information of how to configure.

Ubuntu :: Theme Icons Change When Locale Is Changed?
May 3, 2010I installed Ubuntu for the ability to easily change the system wide locale and language settings.However I've noticed a strange thing when logging in to my account with Japanese set as the language. Although I'm using the default "Ambiance" theme, the folder icons in Nautilus and some other styling seem to change to a different (much uglier) theme. For example on the top panel the network connection icon also reverts to an blue computer screen icon from the other theme, although other icons on the panel and the rest of the styling remains as the correct theme!
I'm now back in English locale, and my theme is normal again. In fact I don't even see the ugly other theme in the theme selector window. I haven't noticed this problem using other languages such as French and Russian.It's only a stylistic theme, but it's really ugly and really bugging me. what might be going wrong?EDIT***********************Ok I just logged back in again using the Japanese locale in order to post a screencap, and of course the problem has vanished now! I already logged in and out a number of times earlier to see if it would solve the problem and it didn't
Debian :: Permanently Change Locale From POSIX To En_GB?
Apr 3, 2010All my LC environment variables are currently set to POSIX at boot, though I can't find the startup script that does this. I've grepped through /etc/rcS.d and /etc/rc2.d but no luck. In /etc/default/locale, LANG is set to en_GB.UTF-8, which is my preferred locale. But this doesn't stop all the LC's being set to POSIX. Consequently, my dates follow the American convention, which I find hard to read.
I tried resetting with update-locale LC_TIME=en_GB.UTF-8. This changed all the locales to en_GB but only for the session. When I rebooted, everything went back to POSIX. The only change is that en_GB.utf-8 is now in the /etc/default/locale file as the value of LC_TIME as well as LANG.
Ubuntu :: How To Change Locale From "en_US.utf8"
Jul 21, 2010Would someone please let me know how to change the default locale in Ubuntu 10.04. In System/Administration/Language Support both Language and Text have been set to English (Denmark).
/etc/default/locale entry is LANG="en_DK.UTF-8".
/var/lib/locales/supported.d/locale entry is en_DK.UTF-8.
Yet locale command lists LANG=en_US.utf8, and all LC_ entries as "en_US.utf8". The machine has been reset many a time.

View 2 Replies View RelatedRed Hat / Fedora :: Bash - Echo Multiple Numeric Values On One Line
Aug 9, 2009I'm trying to get multiple numeric valued version information into a variable, all on the same line. I want for example $VERSION=3.1.0.01.002. I'm trying to pull seperate values from the file named version.properties, wherein the file contains;
patch.rel.num=0
sqa.num=01
major.rel.num=3
build.num=002
minor.rel.num=1
So I have the following script:
#!/bin/bash
BUILDVERFILE="version.properties"
PATCH=`grep "patch.rel.num" ${BUILDVERFILE} | awk {'print $1'}`
SQA=`grep "sqa.num" ${BUILDVERFILE} | awk {'print $1'}`
MAJOR=`grep "major.rel.num" ${BUILDVERFILE} | awk {'print $1'}`
BUILD=`grep "build.num" ${BUILDVERFILE} | awk {'print $1'}`
MINOR=`grep "minor.rel.num" ${BUILDVERFILE} | awk {'print $1'}`
P=`echo $PATCH | tr -d .=[:alpha:]`
S=`echo $SQA | tr -d .=[:alpha:]`
MA=`echo $MAJOR | tr -d .=[:alpha:]`
B=`echo $BUILD | tr -d .=[:alpha:]`
MI=`echo $MINOR | tr -d .=[:alpha:]`
VERSION=$MA.$MI.$P.$S.$B
echo $VERSION #
I end up with the value of .002 ?? Seems like it's only getting the last portion because if I run the script thru "bash -x" I get:
...
+ VERSION=$'3
.1
.0
.01
.002

+ echo $'3

Debian Configuration :: Reboot Both The Server And The Client Machines Every Time Change The SAMBA Configuration?
Apr 5, 2010I am *finally* getting around to rebuilding my file-sharing computer. I'll be sharing files with both Linux and Windoze machines. It's a home network, so there's nothing fancy needed. I know I have to tweak my smb.conf file until I'm satisfied with the features and security. I'm using SWAT and I'm starting with a bare-bones conf file. It's not secure but I can see the server and selected files/directories from my other Linux box.
My really dumb question is, do I have to reboot both the server and the client machines every time I change the SAMBA configuration? I thought I just had to stop and restart the SAMBA service in the SWAT software - but then the server disappears from my client. It looks like I need to reboot both machines for the client to see the server.

Slackware :: How To Set The System Locale
Mar 4, 2010Where is the system locale set?When /etc/profile is run it sources /etc/profile.d/lang.sh which sets envar $LANG but /etc/profile is only used by login shells so -- AFAIK -- modifying $LANG in /etc/profile.d/lang.sh will not change the system locale for processes started by the boot scripts.There are no *locale* files under /etc./etc/inittab has nothing about locale.man init has nothing about locale.man 7 locale describes locale.h and its usage.man 5 locale describes the format of locale files./sbin/init (as investigated using the strings command) may call nl_langinfo but man nl_langinfo only describes how to query the locale, not where it is set.

View 8 Replies View RelatedSlackware :: Using The Esperanto Locale In Xmonad For Sometime?
Apr 29, 2011I have been having some trouble using the Esperanto locale in Xmonad for sometime. I used this locale mainly in the terminal, because obviously Xmonad is a tiling WM and doesnt need a specific locale itself. I found that Esperanto locale prevents Xmonad from starting, but that if the LANG locale is exported after Xmonad is already started, it will turn my xterminal into an Esperanto terminal. Thus opening mutt mail will show Esperanto-Mutt, and for instance "command not found" becomes "komando ne trovita". I enjoy seeing this.
So the trick then is running "export LANG="eo.utf8"" just after xmonad loads before any other programs are run. I tried various things, and now wonder is it possible to just have the terminal itself running it its own locale? I could run this manually in every terminal, but wonder about automating it. I use the Xfce4-Terminal.
I tried .bash_profile, .xinitrc, .bashrc, and I tried adding the export to a bash script set to run by xmonad after it starts up. None of these cause the desired effect. I also notice it is temporary. If I open a terminal and do the export, that terminal is Esperantized. If I open a new terminal it is back to english.
Another thing I noticed is that after xmonad starts, if I manually add the export to .bashrc, all the terminals are in Esperanto. So I am thinking of making a script that does a find and replace of the .bashrc to add the export. Its tricky, some kind of sed-grep action. Another idea would be to put the .bashrc in a weird location so it isnt found on startup. Then make a command to symlink to it in the user folder after Xmonad starts. The main Slackware system would be English locale in order to prevent Xmonad from barfing on startup.
CentOS 5 :: Xwindow - Changing The Locale?
Dec 21, 2010I run KDE 3.X and for the life of it, can't figure out how to assign the "ALT+SHIFT" to switch between keyboard layouts? The default AL+SHIFT+K switches from EN to second one and after that it (obviously) doesn't work. saw a few posts [URL]....alt-shift.html), but the flag is not changing in the tray.
I also tried to go thru "Keyboard shortcuts", but for whatever reason, it doesn't want to accept the combination of "alt+shift" and expects another key ( i guess).
I'm using Centos 5.2 and the the keyboard model is "MS natural keyboard pro" with US and two Cyrillic layouts - one of them is phonetic.

Apr 2, 2010In accordance with directives - possibly misunderstood - I have reconfigured the Debian "locales" package; I changed the installed locale from en_US.ISO-8859-1 to en_US.UTF-8 and left the default locale for the system as "none". So far so good. In my ".bashrc" file, I have an entry for "LC_LANG".
If this entry is set to "en_US.ISO-8859-1" all my texts are readable on the console but I get warnings like: Gtk-WARNING **: Locale not supported by C library. Using the fallback 'C' locale If I change the LC_LANG entry to "en_US.UTF-8", I no longer get these warnings but the screen-display of Midnight Commander (mc) is a real mess. And even man-pages are no longer able to display hyphens (-) correctly.
