I had the same problem on Hardy Alpha 4 using en_us. I noted there's no locale entry on /etc/environment, so I added the LC_ALL entry in it and the problem was solved.
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ sudo echo 'LC_ALL="en_US.UTF-8"' >> /etc/environment I don't know if this is the best way to solve the problem, but it works for me. :) -- [Hardy] gnome-terminal current locale ANSI_X3.4-1968 not unicode using en-gb https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/185671 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug contact for gnome-terminal in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
