Could you run the following command as root? grep -r 'LANG="en_US.UTF-8"' /etc /root Perhaps one of the config files has LANG="en_US.UTF-8", which should be normally interpreted by the shell, but some other tool dealing with the environment (perhaps PAM-related) does that wrong. -- Vincent Lefèvre <vinc...@vinc17.org> - Web: <http://www.vinc17.org/> 100% accessible validated (X)HTML - Blog: <http://www.vinc17.org/blog/> Work: CR INRIA - computer arithmetic / Arenaire project (LIP, ENS-Lyon) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
