Hi, I've got a Mandrake9.2 installation which has been running fine for many months. However I am now getting this message when starting any java gui app (eg jedit): [simon@pcsimon xsltmap]$ jedit current locale is not supported in X11, locale is set to CX locale modifiers are not supported, using defaultException in thread "main" [error] main: java.lang.InternalError: Current locale is not supported And this when starting any gnome app (eg gvim): (gvim:20627): Gdk-WARNING **: locale not supported by Xlib (gvim:20627): Gdk-WARNING **: can not set locale modifiers The most significant change made to my machine over the last few days was to apply the latest MandrakeUpdate updates, including some for XFree86. I am not in the "CX" (czech?) locale, and never have been. Here is what "locale" reports, which is exactly as I expect it: [simon@pcsimon simon]$ locale LANG=en_US LC_CTYPE=en_US LC_NUMERIC=en_NZ LC_TIME=en_US LC_COLLATE=en_US LC_MONETARY=en_NZ LC_MESSAGES=en_US LC_PAPER=en_NZ LC_NAME=en_NZ LC_ADDRESS=en_NZ LC_TELEPHONE=en_NZ LC_MEASUREMENT=en_NZ LC_IDENTIFICATION=en_NZ LC_ALL= I have tried selecting a language at the GDM (graphical login screen) but still get the locale-related problems when starting apps. I've also created a $HOME/.i18n file with all LC_ vars set to en_US, and still get the problem. I've googled for "locale CX" and found half-a-dozen people who appear to have encountered this same problem. Unfortunately, no useful answers were posted to any of these questions.
