Re: Problem with console and locales

Hi, now I sent dpkg-reconfigure again and I get this:

debian:/home/alekz# dpkg-reconfigure locales
perl: warning: Setting locale failed.

        LANGUAGE = "Es_es",

Dear Alejandro,

While this may not be helpful, I would just want you to check if the
font you are using for your console supports the characters you want.
Earlier, I faced similar problems which vanished when I chose the
right font. Try DejaVu Sans Mono, for instance.

HTH.
