This is my /etc/.profile file configured for the Spanish keyboard (ie.
dieresis, accents, n~,...).  All you should do is changing:
export LC_ALL=es_ES
for:
export LC_ALL=es_DE

I hope it works.

Tschüss (sorry, no eszet in my keyboard).


# /etc/profile: system-wide .profile file for bash(1).

PATH="/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/bin/X11:/usr/games"
PS1="\\$ "

export PATH PS1
export LC_ALL=es_ES
