To add files needed by other languages, you could run the add/remove software tool, and add more from the languages section (look in the browse tab). I added more than I can read, simply to get the fonts on the system, so international webpages look correct (no more little boxes instead of the proper characters, etc.). Having a look at what's installed on my system, and available from the yum repos, it looks like the differences are more fonts, and a few language files for *some* things (e.g. man pages in other languages, some extra packages for other software, like open office), etc. Regardless of what's installed, you can set your locale for your language, and things will support it as best the can out of what is on the system, falling back to what the US call English, when they have to. ;-) There's a "language" system administration preference, and users get to choose their language/locale from the GDM greeter screen, allowing individuals to use different ones. -- [tim@bigblack ~]$ uname -ipr 2.6.22.5-76.fc7 i686 i386 Using FC 4, 5, 6 & 7, plus CentOS 5.
