So, let me understand how things are going:

- You generated a bg.UTF8 locale using locale-gen
- Your current locale is now bg.UTF8
- locale -a | grep bg results are:

Code: Select all

sabayon adxok # locale -a | grep bg
locale: Cannot set LC_CTYPE to default locale: No such file or directory
locale: Cannot set LC_MESSAGES to default locale: No such file or directory
locale: Cannot set LC_COLLATE to default locale: No such file or directory
bg_BG
bg_BG.iso88591
bg_BG.utf8


Now, instead of editing all your files to use bg.UTF8, which does not exist and is generated in a (probably) incorrect way, use bg_BG.utf8 or bg_BG, edit the appropriate files to use it, as indicated in the gentoo guide:

/etc/env.d/02locale (for system-wide settings) and ~/.bashrc (for user-specific settings) file.

And run:

(For system-wide default locale:)
# env-update && source /etc/profile

(For user-specific locale:)
$ source ~/.bashrc

If there is some error report it,
otherwise reboot and check again the locale using:

Code: Select all

I thoughth it is very messed up by now so... I did a fresh and clean new Sabayoin 5.2 installation. When I was struggling with the language problem there came up the 5.2 version. I installed it and everything is perfect. So for comparioson my files as discussed above look like this and everything is in Bulgarian (english is available too i think):

/etc/make.conf: (the important line is: LINGUAS="bg")

Code: Select all

    ...EOPTS="-j4 -s "
FEATURES="parallel-fetch collision-protect"
#PORTAGE_NICENESS="8"
LINGUAS="bg"
#ACCEPT_LICENSE="*"

## USE ARRAYS ##
BAD="-kdeprefix -arts -qt3 -beagle -gnome -evo -mono -eds -apm -oss -branding -esd"
MEDIA="musicbrainz sdl pul...

/etc/locale.gen:

Code: Select all

en_US.UTF-8 UTF-8
en_US ISO-8859-1
bg_BG.UTF-8 UTF-8
bg_BG CP1251


/etc/env.d/02locale:

Code: Select all

LANG="bg_BG.UTF-8"
LC_MESSAGES="bg_BG.UTF-8"
LANGUAGE="bg_BG.UTF-8"
GDM_LANG="bg_BG.UTF-8"
LC_ALL="bg_BG.UTF-8"
SYSFONT="latarcyrheb-sun16"


no other files need to be compared.

Everithyng is PERFECT now. Sabayon 5.2 rules!!!

For nVidia card owners ONLY!!!
Just for the protocol for anyone who was annoyed like me of Xorg.conf and nvidia-settings not saving after restart.

Open Terminal and write: su
Enter your 'root' (admin) password.
write: nvidia-settings

nVidia Settings pannel opens up. Go to resolution and freq settings adjust your preffered resolution, in my case it is: 1152x864 pixels and 85Hz freq refresh
Press 'Advanced' and choose once again, in my case it is: 10. 1152x864_85 +0+0

Press Save configuration! Close the porgram by pressing the 'x' window button (up-right).

IMPORTANT!!!
Go to Places, Computer, File System (Sabayon): /etc/X11/xorg.conf
right click, Open With Application... choose 'gedit' and open the Option command line (the triangle button below menu)!!!
You'll see: gedit
Just type: gksu
(it should read: gksu gedit)
then hit Open... now you may save in gedit as Administrator!

Scroll down in gedit (you have opened xorg.conf as admin) to the Section:

Code: Select all

Section "Screen"
    Identifier     "Screen0"
    Device         "Device0"
    Monitor        "Monitor0"
    DefaultDepth    24
    Option         "TwinView" "0"
    Option         "TwinViewXineramaInfoOrder" "CRT-0"
    Option         "metamodes" "nvidia-auto-select +0+0; 1152x864_85 +0+0; 1152x864_85 +0+0"
    SubSection     "Display"
        Depth       24
    EndSubSection
EndSection


Imoprtant line is: Option "metamodes" "nvidia-auto-select +0+0; 1152x864_85 +0+0; 1152x864_85 +0+0"
Just delete (with backspace: +0+0;) so it becomes as:

Code: Select all

Option         "metamodes" "nvidia-auto-select 1152x864_85 +0+0; 1152x864_85 +0+0"


The resolutin should be your preffered from nvidia-settings setup window allready spoken above. The above shown is just for my monitor, so be careful not to just copy/paste this one!

Save the file!

Restart and your resolution and freq config is remebered and used every time the computer starts!
