Hi, Now this could be a feature or bug yet I would like to get this to work the way I want to. I am using KDE with Country Turkey; Language English Charset iso8859-9. Now this way I can type and display the turkish characters properly. However YAST2 is just looking to the LANG of the environment I set in .bashrc and wants to display the menus in Turkish (although it is integrating to KDE it does use KDE settings). Is there a way to get YAST2 to work in English (or to follow the orders of KDE not .bashrc) If thre is not a way I do not consider this as a feature :( This is what I have in .bashrc # KDE wants LANG to be tr export LANG=tr # I want messages in English export LC_MESSAGES=en_US # Order of letters must be Turkish export LC_COLLATE=tr_TR.ISO-8859-9 #Sorting is better with C or POSIX export LC_CTYPE=C #time I can live with POSIX export LC_TIME=C export _XKB_CHARSET=iso8859-9 -- Togan Muftuoglu
Togan, you should ask this to feedback@suse.de. There's a much bigger chance that you'll get a good answer. * Togan Muftuoglu [Sat, 05 May 2001 22:30:24 +0300]:

tr_TR should suffice unless there do exist turkish locales with different character sets.
#Sorting is better with C or POSIX export LC_CTYPE=C
LC_CTYPE determines the output charset and its characteristics like hat is a printable character. Sorting is determined by LC_COLLATE, not LC_CTYPE! -- Penguins to save the dinosaurs -- Handelsblatt on Linux for S/390

Well, not really - feedback@suse.de does not guarantee a personal reply. These guys are busy enough sorting out valid bug reports and feature requests. It is not an alternatve free support hotline!

Well I am not looking for support on this issue (thank got I can read understand Turkish and English.) I can use it even it is in Russian or in German . My question was basicly was based on KDE2 and YAST2 if really are integrated then YAST2 should read the KDE2 environment settings not my LANG variable which is just there so I can type and display Turkish Characters properly. If I am using windowmaker then everything works perfectly even when the LANG is set to en_US I can still type and display Turkish characters. All I wanted was to be sure that it was not from my configuration that such a thing is happening. Every KDE2 application is with English menus and there you go YAST2 jumping in Turkish. I am notr complaining of anything I am just making sure that it is not only me facing this. If this is an unwanted feature (which looks like to me) I will post it to feedback@suse.de I thought that address was also If you find a solution to a known issue you can send the information and since those emails are read who knows you can help also. So ending result I will send an email to feedback@suse.de without waiting for a reply yet I want to be double sure that this isnot my configuration error. Hope this clarifies the situation -- Togan Muftuoglu

I didn't want to imply that. I saw it as a bug report and as such, feedback *would* be the right address. -- Penguins to save the dinosaurs -- Handelsblatt on Linux for S/390
