I had this problem for a while, too, and was only able to get rid of it by manually editing my cookies. One of them was set to remember the language as German, so I deleted it and then everything was groovy. -- ================================================================== Glenn Holmer (Linux registered user #16682) ================================================================== We shall swim out to that brooding reef in the sea and dive down through black abysses to Cyclopean and many-columned Y'ha-nthlei, and in that lair of the Deep Ones we shall dwell amidst wonder and glory for ever. ================================================================== -H.

Language is 'remembered' with a cookie. Leave the novell.com site. Look for a novell.com cookie with the name novell_language and delete it. Go to novell.com again and it should be as you expect. Doug

This happened to me a couple of weeks ago for the Novell side of things. One day out of the blue I was suddenly getting German pages. I thought there was a problem with Novell's site and actually called my local Novell Sales rep. There wasn't... I finally figured out what the problem was. Anyway here is how to fix it. Go back the Novell page. www.novell.com On the main header under the "Training" link there is small link labled "language". Click on it and choose English, or whatever language you prefer. The language setting I believe is stored in a cookie and mostly likely it got changed by accident. In my case probably when I was attempting to use "login" link, which is right next to the "language" link, and most likely got interrupted by the phone or something else... HTH

This just happened to me and I'm afraid my opinion about whether there's a problem with Novell's site is different to yours. My browser has a preference set for en_gb followed by en, so any website that is capable of serving in both English and German that wants to serve me pages in German really ought to ask my advice before deciding to do so! I think what triggered this was going to www.suse.de, which used to be able to show some English content that wasn't available from www.suse.com. Why on this occasion the Novell lack-of-thought police took over I don't know. But even then, the same logic should have led it to believe that if I subsequently explicitly typed www.suse.com then it should supply content in English. Finally, this has apparently been catching people for nearly three months, so there isn't really any excuse not to have fixed it.

Unfortunately, the link is not labelled 'language' because the page is in German!!!! It's called something like sprach, which I took to mean a phone contact number or something ... I only saw the link after I switched languages. Deleting all the Novell cookies was the easiest solution for me. Cheers, Dave

I saw it using firefox and couldn't change it, I knew sprache in German meant speech, so I mistook it for something else. Displaying the page in konqueror and it appeared in English as language, so I went back to firefox, changed it and since then it always displays in English. Regards Sid. -- Sid Boyce ...
