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 :: 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 :: 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.
I have tried to find the most helpful page on the Internet and read some "man locale":

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.

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
Ubuntu :: Finding A Tasker/Locale Type Program?
Nov 17, 2010I'm wondering if there exists software that serves the same kind of function as Tasker or Locale for Android except for Linux. I think it would be really great to be able to have certain things run automatically based on a set of conditions. For example, I would like to automatically sync my mp3s to my laptop from my home computer when my laptop connects to my home network.

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.
Ubuntu :: Language Support System In English / Foreign Locale
May 3, 2010I only want spellchecking, calendar and currency to be typical for Poland (this is where I currently live), Ubuntu itself (interface, applications, manuals) should be in English - I don't understand Polish well enough.In 9.10 I used to check Polish spellchecking (translations were checked for install automatically but you couldn't tell unless you chose another language and then Polish again) and uncheck the translations. It allowed for setting locale (calendar/currency) to Polish and also keep the spellchecking. Now it's buggy: I can do a fresh install of Ubuntu but can't set Polish spellchecking, calendar (it starts from Monday), currency (it's PLN/zł) and keep the system itself in English. What I do wrong?
1. Fresh install
2. System -> Administration -> Language Support
3. Language -> Install / Remove Languages
4. Find Polish and select ONLY: Spellchecking and writing aids
5. Text -> Display numbers, dates and currency amounts in: Polish
Confirm, reboot and... Bump! I've got Polish translations in several places, e.g.:If I upgrade any software, it is in Polish. Firefox (or Namoroka) locale changes to "pl,en" and its plug-ins are in Polish by default.
After I uninstall Polish translations (and leave spellchecking and writing aids as it was) there's a problem with locale (Polish locale is removed along with translations), besides, system doesn't actually change back to English and newly installed applications either crash with errors or install in Polish.
Ubuntu :: Define Location In Clear Weather Screenlet (Locale)?

General :: Locale Adjustment Not Working As Expected?
May 13, 2011On Slackware64 13.1 the as-installed en_GB locale gave Sunday as the first day of the week.

General :: Make Custom 'locale' Files?
Jul 9, 2011Under Debian "Expert Installation" once I have chosen installation/system language and location, I get an informative notice, that:
Code:
There is no locale defined for the combination of language and country you have selected.
..and I need to choose one locale available for the selected language. As I understand, locale is just a set of environmental variables used by applications and printed out with locale command?
In addition, is it possible to generate own locale files after the installation, which will match my needs?

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.
Server :: SSH Into Particular Directory - Locale Set Back To Default
Jul 20, 2011So, I wanted to give myself a short cut to not just login to a remote server, but also change into a particular directory once I got there. This was harder than I expected, but this finally worked when I wrapped this up into a shortcut:
ssh -t user@example.com 'cd /var/www/mydir; bash'
And I just alter the directory path to make another shortcut to a different place on the same server. This does work, however, it seems when I log in this way, some of my environment is lost, and my locale is set back to the default "POSIX". That's not good. I'm running Gentoo Linux (amd64).

How do I go about getting this information from the installed localization packages?
View 13 Replies View RelatedDebian :: 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.
