Hi all,
I am using FC2. I have a graphical login set up and so
I can choose the environment language from the login
screen by clicking on the Language tab at the bottom
left.
By language for environment I mean that I get the
desktop icons and the panel all in my selected
language.
My query is, how to choose language if login is set
for init 3. I mean, how would I choose a language for
my session if I don't have a graphical login screen.
Believe the LANG environment variable will do it. See what
"env | grep LANG" shows with the desired language environment active,
and then "export LANG=<setting>" in runlevel 3.
Try changing the "LANG=" setting in /etc/sysconfig/i18n as that sets
the default language. /etc/sysconfig/keyboard sets the default keymap,
too.
