Summary: English (US) locale settings incorrect
Product: openSUSE 11.0
Version: RC 1
Platform: Other
OS/Version: Other
Status: NEW
Severity: Normal
Priority: P5 - None
Component: KDE4 Workspace
AssignedTo: kde-maintainers@xxxxxxx
ReportedBy: dmoore316@xxxxxxx
QAContact: qa@xxxxxxx
Found By: ---


During installation, I set English (US) to be the locale. When I open KDE's
Configure Desktop program, it says I'm using default. Most of the details are
correct ($ for currency, commas for thousand and periods for decimal, date in
the usual setting for the U.S., etc.). Several details are not. First the
taskbar clock is using 24 hour rather than the 12 hour AM/PM that we Yanks like
over more rational settings :). While regular date is correct, short date is
in the non-U.S. year-month-date format rather than our month-date-year. Also,
paper is set to A4 rather than letter, and measure system is set to metric
rather than Imperial. While all easy to change, if you choose English (US) in
the installation process, KDE should automatically give you typical U.S.
formats.
