Ubuntu :: Wrong Locale \ Go Back To English, The Locale Doesn't Change Back, Only The Menus Are In English?

Mar 5, 2011

I 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"

Slackware :: Non-English Input Under English Locale

Feb 3, 2010

I'm trying to make Japanese input work with Scim, but when I modify Locale to make it work, all the menu(pulldown menu, title etc.)also becomes Japanese too. Is there anyway to keep English menus/titles while Japanese(or any other language) input method with SCIM is enabled ?

Ubuntu :: Language Support System In English / Foreign Locale

May 3, 2010

I 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.

Server :: SSH Into Particular Directory - Locale Set Back To Default

Jul 20, 2011

So, 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).

Ubuntu Installation :: Can't Create Japanese Locale: Get A Segmentation Fault On Generating Locale?

Oct 13, 2010

Maverick 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

[code].....

Debian Configuration :: Switch Between English And Japanese Input While Keeping An English Interface

Sep 23, 2010

I am learning japanese and I would like to be able to switch between english and japanese input while keeping an english interface. How would I achieve that? I am using KDE, by the way.

In the Kiten documentation I read that pressing Shift+Space would enable japanese input (built-in in Kiten, according to the documentation). But that does not seem to work in my system.

Debian Configuration :: Cannot Change Locale

Jul 12, 2015

I 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 :: Theme Icons Change When Locale Is Changed?

May 3, 2010

I 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, 2010

All 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.

Debian Multimedia :: Scim/skim Doesn't Show Other Languages Than English?

Jul 28, 2010

I use Lenny 2.6.26-1-686 and kde 3.5.10I installed scim/skim and a great load of related packages and some fonts. I changed a lot of configuration files, so many times that I'm at a loss about them right now. Skim is starting with kde, and an icon is showing at the lower right corner. If I press Alt+F2 to run another app though, this icon disappears. I configured skim at the meny "Main Toolbar Configuration" to "always show" [3]. So I can still configure it from this Toolbar that is always at the desktop. But I can't really use the programme.

Well, I'm trying to type romanized Pali fonts (Pali is the language of Buddhist scriptures).When I run openoffice, for instance, and try to select the "input method" there's only English/European; Raw Code; and Keyboard for alternatives.I created the file "/usr/share/m17n/sa-translit.mim" with a map for transliteration of the special characters. I learned how to do this here:The first thing I noted is that when I pasted the content of the file to the terminal, some characters appeared as "blank squares". So I guess my system can't find any fonts installed to print these characters. But I thought I had installed the fonts that supported them (Gentium, Dejavu Sans and others). I must be missing something.

At the K-Menu, if I go to "Settings" -> "SCIM Imput Method Setup" it doesn't work any more. No window opens. At first, when I was starting to try to make it work, I could open this setup window and the "sa-translit.mim" file was there under the "Other" category (but it didn't really work, I don't know why). Now this setup doesn't run anymore, and at the "Configure" window for Skim I have only "English/European" and "Raw Code" at "Global Setup"-> "Other".But I have many things at /usr/share/m17n/ which should be showing here, I guess.

My /etc/scim/global
SupportedUnicodeLocales = en_GB.utf8
/DefaultPanelProgram = /usr/bin/scim-panel-kde

Ubuntu :: How To Change Locale From "en_US.utf8"

Jul 21, 2010

Would 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.

Slackware :: How To Set The System Locale

Mar 4, 2010

Where 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 :: Push Locale Configuration To A Lot Of Clients?

I 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 :: Using The Esperanto Locale In Xmonad For Sometime?

Apr 29, 2011

I 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, 2010

I 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.
