set system language [Solved]

[maulbongo]

Hi folks,

Dont know if Im right here [and typing on czech keyboard ]

I installed a fresḧ sabayon 9 KDE in German [because its my native language].
Afterwards I changed the language using rigo to geht the l10n for kde in czech an changed the used language to czech.
After rebooting all went fine and all stuff is written in czech.
But not rigo and chromium, both are still german.
Now I already checked the etc/locale-gen [as I could find in gentoo wiki] and there I switched those

Code: Select all

en_US.UTF-8 UTF-8
en_US ISO-8859-1
de_DE.UTF-8 UTF-8
de_DE ISO-8859-1
de_DE@euro ISO-8859-15


to

Code: Select all

en_US.UTF-8 UTF-8
en_US ISO-8859-1
cs_CZ.UTF-8 UTF-8
cs_CZ ISO-8859-2
de_DE@euro ISO-8859-15


And I also tried to comment

Code: Select all

de_DE@euro ISO-8859-15

out.
But nothig drove me to the right direction, I always ended up with a meshed system where all is czech exept rigo and chromium.
In the locale settings of KDE there is also still written, that German is the default system language.
Its not that big deal, because the one I installed sabayon for is familiar with german, but everything in czech would be more comfortable.
Hope someone could help.

a quick workaround is to start chromium as follows:

Code: Select all

LC_ALL=cs_CZ.UTF-8 /usr/bin/chromium-browser

same with rigo

Hi svantoviit,

Thank you for your help, after this hint I did some investigations and found the solution.
As written here http://www.gentoo-wiki.info/Locales I changed the

Code: Select all

/etc/env.d/02locale

from

Code: Select all

LANG="de_DE.UTF-8"
SYSFONT="LatArCyrHeb-16"


to

Code: Select all

LANG="cs_CZ.UTF-8"
SYSFONT="LatArCyrHeb-16"


after this I did

Code: Select all

env-update && source /etc/profile

and then I rebooted the system and now I works like a charme.
