How to set GNOME's Language ?

Hey There,

I started using SLIM instead of GDM.. But my GNOME environment is now in English (since the system locale is English..) But my own user's locale is Turkish.. How can I make GNOME use my locale for its language ?

Thanks..

Set the LANG, LANGUAGE and LC_ALL environment variables in the .bashrc of your users home to the language you want:

E.g. german:

LANG=de_DE.utf-8
LANGUAGE=de
LC_ALL=de_DE.utf-8
