Re: /etc/environment vs /etc/default/locale

Was ich feststellen konnte ist, daß LANGUAGE, auf en_US gesetzt,
ziemlich viele Programme aus Englisch umschaltet (aber nicht alle),
unter anderem auch gdm. Die locale-Variablen werden dabei aber nicht
verändert. GDM_LANG ändert hingegen nur die Sprache von gdm.

Bei letzterem ist alles Standard. Die gdm.conf folgt. Vor dem
Ausprobieren ist es wohl sinnvoll, das graphische Theme und die Sounds
zurückzustellen, und der X-Aufruf funktioniert nur mit installiertem
xkb-data, sonst erst die xkbdir-Option entfernen.
