If you want to have a french speaking system, just set up you locale.conf this way : LANG=fr_CH.UTF-8 LC_COLLATE=C An english speaking system ? LANG= en_US.UTF-8 LC_COLLATE=C Hope it helps :) And don't forget to run locale-gen in order to get locale files generated. -- Frederic Bezies fredbezies@xxxxxxxxx
