I apologize if this argument was treated in Forum, but the proposed solutions don't work on my PC.

I've installed from LiveCD correctly launched in Italian language, but the right-click menu on the desktop, the Gnome applications (Liferea, gedit ecc.) and the gdm login screen still are in English.
Only the submenus of "Application", "Places" and "System" and the not-Gnome applications are in Italian.

I've tried with

- dpkg-reconfigure locales
- modifying language from login screen
- adding lang=it in kernel line of /boot/grub/menu.lst
- changing manually the set language in /etc/environement, /etc/profile, $HOME/.dmrc

all these files and the command "locale" from shell show the correct value

it_IT@euro

I've tried also with it_IT and it_IT@UTF.8, but without results.

Only Gnome is affected by problem, because XFce 4.4 - excellent on Parsix, congratulations! - runs perfectly.

Hopefully I'm not forced to system reinstall, because about all the rest Parsix works very very well.

edit the "/etc/sysconfig/i18n" file with the Italian information and restart gnome.

Thanks arash-m, but opening this file I read


LANG="it_IT@euro"
COUNTRY="it"
LANGUAGE="it"
CHARSET="iso8859-15"
XMODIFIERS=""
export LC_ALL=it_IT@euro
export LANG=it


and Gnome/gdm still are in English... Sad

I can see GDM/Gnome in Italian with this:

Code:
LANG="it_IT.UTF-8"
COUNTRY="it"
LANGUAGE="it"
CHARSET="UTF-8"
XMODIFIERS=""

Nothing... I've tried also with Parsix 2.0 and here I find also XFce in English. I don't understand. Sad

Another way. I've downloaded and recompiled all italian translations from gnome. Download them from here and replace them with files inside '/usr/share/locale/it/LC_MESSAGES'. Check if you still have the problem.

Thank you very much, arash-m. Smile I've downloaded and tried your files: all Gnome becomes in Italian, with exception of "Application", "Places", "System" and of the time/date format, all remaining in English.
I'm afraid that the problem is something of corrupted in the system, maybe after an installation of software: I go to try what, if I found a bug or a problem I'll write it here.

EDIT: something has gone bad copying the files: I've repeated it and now Gnome is perfect.
Thank you very much again. Smile

Hello! Smile

I really need help with changing the inteface langauge in Parsix Boss 32-bit 2.0r0 into Russian.
I tried running dpk-reconfigure locales and adding lang=ru to the grub but the only thing that is in Russian now is Synaptic,

I absolutely love Parsix and I have decided to give my father a computer as a gift with Parsix installed. My dad is over 70 and he can't really read any English. Would you please tell me what shall I do?

Thank you very much in advance!

simply edit the "/etc/sysconfig/i18n" file with following info:

Code:
LANG="es_ES.ISO-8859-1"
COUNTRY="es"
LANGUAGE="es"
CHARSET="ISO-8859-1"
XMODIFIERS=""


you have to see everything in Spanish after restarting gnome.
Note: you've to install "iceweasel-l10n-es-es" for firefox and "aspell-es" for spell checking in spanish.

I am very sorry to bother you again.

I messed up my GIMP and had to reinstall it. As soon as I did it i lost my Russian. My /etc/sysconfig/i18n looks like this at the moment:
LANG="ru-RU.UTF-8"
COUNTRY="ru"
LANGUAGE="ru"
CHARSET="UTF-8"
XMODIFIERS=""

Some words are in Russian in my system but almost everything is in English.

Would you please help me to fix this problem?

Do you have needed files under "/usr/share/locale"?

also try reinstalling "libglib2.0-data"
