Environment setting before gdm start

[Joachim Trinkwitz <jtr@uni-bonn.de>]

Hi,

I wants to get german menues in gdm for my users, which implies
setting the LC_ALL environment variable to de_DE. I did this in the
/etc/profile, but this only helps after gdm is restarted.

I understand that gdm starts before the /etc/profile settings are
worked out. How to set some variables early enough?

Any help appreciated,
joachim
