Thanks mate! Just to be clear for noobs out there... modify your /etc/profile and append that line. As noted in one of the posts above, en_US is the default, so you actually don't want to add that! Add your local language instead... so for me, I appended the following. Code: export LANG=en_AU.UTF-8 Cheers, Stefan
