Was lo aka 'Loa' listed in kpersonalizer and in control center 'Country/Region & Language'? I doubt that there's anything hardcoded in the control center module but that something is missing or miss configured. Check ~/.xsession-error is, there's something about 'lo'. > > > So I added lo to the language as > > [Locale] > Country=la > Language=lo > > Issued this command 'KDE_LANG= kwrite', it works... > > Open many KDE apps like kmail, konsole, kate, and etc...the Only program > didn't work now is conqueror. > > How do I report the problem where the language id didn't get assign from > kcontrol. As I wrote I still think it's a config problem not a control center problem. Double check if your /usr/share/locale/lo has entries and contents like, e.g., $ l /usr/share/locale/de | grep -v cups_ total 52 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 6 2000-01-29 21:51 charset -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1458 2004-05-28 11:39 entry.desktop -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 357 1999-05-31 15:48 flag.png drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 32768 2004-09-13 23:00 LC_MESSAGES drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 2004-07-28 14:47 LC_TIME If this does not help, ask on the general kde-i18n KDE lists.
