Locale problem after #7.1 re-install
Hi all,
Several weeks ago my desktop suffered an unknown problem that caused it to not be able to find my boot device. Nothing I could do would get it to find where Mageia was on my SSD. So I cut my losses and did a complete re-install. Boy am I sorry I did that - my system has been plagued by all sorts of gremlins since then. A few I have managed to rectify, but this one I don't know what is causing this or what to do to fix it. When I execute some cmds in the terminal, prefaced before the result is the following: Code:
locale: Cannot set LC_ALL to default locale: No such file or directory One of the suggestions was to reselect your locale language and re-install it. I looked in MCC and there is ALL sorts of languages for some really off-beat countries - BUT no entry for locale-au (Australia)!!??? And where is this "file or directory" it's looking for??? Also I ran into this associated (?) problem today when I was using K3B to burn a DVD/RW: Code:
System locale charset is ANSI_X3.4-1968 Any assistance greatly appreciated. |
If you did a complete reinstall, it should work well enough. Unless you deliberately set some very weird options during install.
My guesses:

ondoho,
thanks for that. No I don't think I specified any other settings. But on top of this I have also been getting lots of other problems. I now have a KB that suddenly no longer works till Mageia (default option on Grub2 menu) boots and I can login as normal - I can't even access my BIOS! So, yes I think my problems may be more hardware related. My system is 8 years old. I have had a few odd problems over the previous 12 months or more with the SSD disappearing and the KB mysteriously not working (but I would just unplug/replug and it was ok) Now I have an excuse to upgrade my system. So I'll mark this solved. |
