en_US.ISO-8859-15 localeHello, I can't get the en_US.ISO-8859-15 locale to work. I've reconfigured the locales package, choose that locale but it won't work. My locale output is: LANG=en_US.ISO-8859-15 I've installed the debian sarge by debootstrap and did the base-config. Maybe somethings missing. Any help? Thanks. Bookmark/Search this post with:

It seems that you got
It seems that you got success with you reconfiguration. That's you problem? Does your old filenames and textdocuments look weird? There are converters both for filenames and textdocuments but I can't remember their names. I googled a lot because I reconfigured my locale from sv_SE.ISO-8859-15 to sv_SE.UTF-8 but could'n find the site there I read about it earlier. I found one as you already has installed. Run: "man iconv" But you should now that UTF-8 is the future and, I think, give you less struggle in the future.

No, its not the documents
No, its not the documents that are weird, its the keyboard layout that is wrong. The layout keeps in the en_US and I want the en_US.ISO-8859-15...
A keyboard thing.
That's a keyboard thing. I have no clue there you change that but if you run KDE take a look in the Kcontrol. It's there somethere.
