Change that value in /etc/sysconfig/i18n. Although the difference is simply that you'll occasionally get American content / spelling / preferences. You shouldn't have problems with accents or unusual characters due to the difference. (Having said that, I'm still on FC4. Check /usr/lib/locale and make sure there's an en_GB.utf8 directory there if you're on FC5). > I've seen it mostly in konqueror file manager, but yesterday I received an > email where one name showed the same problem. So from where did you get those files? Were they generated on another computer? What happens if you ls them from the command line? As for the single e-mail -- I'd blame the other end, personally.
