Hi,
  I am using Precise. I set LC_ALL and LANG to zh_CN.UTF-8 in
/etc/default/locale and /etc/environment.
  Login to tty1, `locale` gives correct result. But in xwindow,
gnome-terminal, `locale` returns everything in POSIX, except LANG and
LANGUAGE are empty.
  Then I exported these envs in .bashrc, it was OK with `locale`. But utf8
Chinese still shown messy. For example in `ls` and `mutt`.
  I used myunity to set all fonts to Chinese font and gnome-terminal is
using system font.
  I installed urxvt, which ended up the same situation.
  All other GUI tools like gedit, chromium work fine.

  Please help.
