Hi, Ryan,

Locale refers to the country you are in and/or the language you are using.
It is a setting for internationalization/localization.  "C" just means
default, which is determined by what you set as your default at install
time.  I have no idea what CX is.

How you switch locales does vary by distribution, and there are different
tools in KDE or Gnome to set the locale and/or language.  Can you tell us
what distro and version you are running?  I can answer the question for
some, but not for others.

Regards,
Caity

Exactly what is the "locale" in Linux, and how does one change it?
Apparently mine should be C, which apparently is by far the most common
value, but is set to CX. It is causing some of my programs that run off of
the X server to behave erratically, or not function at all. Anybody know
anything about this?
