Problem with locale in ubuntu 10.10

[Christof Buechi]

Hi Everybody,

(Its the first time i write on this list - I'm sorry about mistakes)

I've got a big problem with language settings. I google a lot, but cannot
find the perfect solution. I know there are a lot of results of this topic..
I tried something with "locale -a", "dpkg-reconfigure locale" and also with
"export LC_ALL="de_CH.utf8"".
I haven't got a guess why i cannot solve this problem.

Maybe somebody have some deeper experience with this problem, and can help
me a little bit ?

Thank you very much!
