        Using the fallback 'C' locale.
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/beryl-settings", line 35, in <module>
    locale.setlocale(locale.LC_ALL, '')

Re: can't access beryl settings

I believe you need to:

1.  Go to a term and become "root"
2.  Edit /etc/locale.gen and uncomment the local(s) you want
3.  Save /etc/locale.gen
4.  Run locale-gen

That will probably fix you up.  A more experienced user will come along soon and check my instructions (I hope!).
