I installed a new locale today because I want to post to a French newsgroup that does not accept articles in utf8, my default character set (god knows why).
curty@einstein:~$ locale -a C en_US.utf8 fr_FR@euro fr_FR.iso885915@euro POSIX So when I log back in to gnome (I even rebooted like a loser after my first failure) shouldn't the gdm3 language chooser give me the option of choosing French as a language now? Because it doesn't. It just offers me English, exactly as it did before I installed the French locale. What am I missing? What should I do to make it work? I did choose en_US.utf8 as my default locale, but I have the right to do that, don't I? Instead of rebooting I should have just restarted gdm3 service gdm3 restart I don't know what files it sources to get the available locales (/etc/locale.gen?)
