Comment # 2 on bug 1041301 from Stefan Hundhammer

What locale are you using? (Both in KDE and on the console)
Please add the output of the "locale" command for both your user account and
for root. Also, please attach /etc/sysconfig/language .

What was the exact error message?

The logs from the error case (and only that) would also be helpful. You could
move away the old ones, run that YaST module again and attach the content of
/var/log/YaST2, then move the logs back:

    su
    cd /var/log
    mv YaST2 YaST2.old

    ...(run module again)...

    tar cvf /tmp/y2logs.tar
    rm -rf YaST2
    mv YaST2.old YaST2

TIA
