Hi,
I keep getting these messages when running xterm (& other apps)
Warning: locale not supported by Xlib, locale set to C
Warning: X locale modifiers not supported, using default
Failed to open input method
I have locale set in /etc/profile
#
# /etc/profile

for profile in /etc/profile.d/*.sh; do
if [ -x $profile ]; then

Hmmm, ok couple of things:
what's in /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/locale/en_GB.UTF-8 ?
can you try: en_GB.UTF-8 as the locale... *shrug*
are there locale settings anywhere else that would conflict?
try setting LANGUAGE="en_GB.UTF-8" also? (that's a GNU extension)
try replacing LC_COLLATE with LC_ALL...
I'm pulling at straws right now... never really bothered with locales (en_US)

Its just that since loading new KDE (& maybe even Gnome) things are taking longer to load ....
& I get odd error messages .... (I hate error messages means something needs fixing yet it works;-S)
Never had a problem like this before ... I'll keep searching ;-)
cd /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/locale/
[mrgreen@Arch locale]$ ls
compose.dir locale.alias locale.dir

hmmm, I'm not at my box, but I think I have a huge mess of symlinks in that dir.... I'll check for sure later on tonight...

I don't have en_GB.UTF-8. Here's what I get:

Maybe try to reinstall xorg.

FYI en_GB is just a symlink to en_US for most of it... you could probably link the dirs

Yay! Snowman reinstalling Xorg did the trick....
[scratches head] Why did that happen? [/scratches head]
& thanks to phracky too....;-)
