Here's a quick-and-dirty fix which is utterly off-topic: (as root) vi /var/lib/mozilla/chrome.d/99default (change the line locale,install,select,en-US to locale,install,select,de-AT for example) /sbin/update-mozilla-chrome This will simply set the default system-wide. While not as good as a Mozilla which understands the relevant environment variables, it may help a sysadmin faced with hundreds of non-english-speaking novices. But I don't know whether /var/lib/mozilla/chrome.d/99default is a config file, and am too lazy to check right now. Florian -- Q.
