Good for novice users. GNOME language > support is a different from system-config-language. Note that GNOME actually does/can apply language settings systemwide. As of 3.8, which is in F19, if you have a single user who has admin privileges, changes you make to "Language" and "Input Sources" in "Region & Language" are transparently applied system-wide. If your user does not have admin privileges, or you have other user accounts, the panel includes a "Login Screen" button which, despite the somewhat misleading name, is basically a 'systemwide settings' panel: if you click on this, it will ask for any authentication needed, and then let you set the system-wide settings for those two items. I don't think it yet tries to install missing fonts / translation packages, though. -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Twitter: AdamW_Fedora | identi.ca: adamwfedora http://www.happyassassin.net -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
