No, I get the same behavior on both machines. What matters is whether I start gnome-terminal locally or via ssh. And starting gnome-terminal after a "ssh localhost" doesn't work at all (bug 731456). > my only options are "Unicode (UTF-8)" and "Current Locale (UTF-8)", This is what I have via ssh. So, the question is: how does gnome-terminal determine the "current locale"? Certainly not via the LC_* environment variables, as they are the same with and without ssh. And I think that the fact that gnome-terminal doesn't use them is a bug. And "LC_ALL=C gnome-terminal" in a ssh session doesn't change anything: gnome-terminal still selects UTF-8. -- Vincent Lefèvre <[email protected]> - Web: <http://www.vinc17.net/> 100% accessible validated (X)HTML - Blog: <http://www.vinc17.net/blog/> Work: CR INRIA - computer arithmetic / AriC project (LIP, ENS-Lyon) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
