Hello, in /etc/X11/gdm/locale.conf there is
German(Germany) [EMAIL PROTECTED] also in /etc/locale.gen is [EMAIL PROTECTED] UTF-8 so [EMAIL PROTECTED] is a valid construction I guess... Just to be sure I also tested with de_DE.UTF-8 locale with the same results. Starting some applications crashes the Xserver so that I'm back at the gdm prompt. One of the applications crashing the Xserver is xmms. I already filed a bug against the xmms package (bug 247450) but there was no reaction. Because this happens with quite some packages I'm not sure if I should file a bug against each one or if this is a more general problem. I'm running Debian testing (updated yesterday) with Gnome 2.4.
