Please check the output of "locale" and then set LANG to something that can be find in the output of "locale -a". The keyboard is not affected by LANG, so if you want English error messages and are using UTF-8, you should place the following in your shell startup file export LANG=en_US.UTF-8 Cheers, Ulrich Spoerlein -- It is better to remain silent and be thought a fool, than to speak, and remove all doubt.
