What do you mean by if I have >>changed the defaults<<??? What is the defaults? How can I tell. I already said that when I first started system.config.language that the "default" was set to Afrikaan or at least this item was highlighted, assumed that this "default" is wrong and proceeded to change this item to: "English (USA)", and closed the program. Did it work? I am still seeing the following in the system logs: Sep 13 08:46:14 <hostname> ntfs-3g[7707]: Could not convert filename to Unicode: 'Clavier-B�chlein F�r Anna Maguire': Invalid or incomplete multibyte or wide character I do not see this sort of error message in F9, using the same exact filesystem drive/partition. I compared F9 & F11 /etc/sysconfig/i18n as follows: In F9: LANG="en_US.utf8" SYSFONT="latarcyrheb-sun16" In F11: # LANG=C considerably speeds up boot (measured 5sec) -- bernie LANG="en_US.UTF-8" SYSFONT="latarcyrheb-sun16" They are pretty much same except for that weird commented out LANG=C line, for which I never put there. It is possible that the system log message is not a "locale" issue and points to something else, I dunno... -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
