The locale is typically controlled by the LANG shell variable. Either unset it or set it to the locale of your choice. Unsetting it will get you the C (POSIX) locale by default and will give you some immediate relief while you fix it permanently. unset LANG The debian method of controlling locale is with the 'locale' package. You can reconfigure it using dpkg-reconfigure. dpkg-reconfigure locales It is also fine to edit the /etc/locale.gen directly and run the locale-gen command manually. But then you also need to edit /etc/environment, or remove it, to cause it to take effect. Easier to run dpkg-reconfigure and let the scripts handle it. Bob
