I did choose a Gnome system. At the first login screen presented by gdm, Japanese language was preselected. When logging in without touching this, ja_JP.UTF-8 locale was set by default. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Another strange effect: when trying to change to a different language from the default offered in gdm (simplified Chinese), I get a selection box with many languages but Japanese seems to be missing in that list.

This sounds like bug 446446. Should be fixed now. I actually wonder if bug 446446 also fixes this... -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
