Try lightdm-1.1.0-r1, as reporting bugs for older version with same KEYWORDS is kind of pointless I am also experiencing this problem with x11-misc/lightdm-1.1.0-r1. This problem does not occur with x11-misc/slim. Not sure if this is a Gentoo specific problem. It seems to me that it is not. Can you please report it to upstream developers? https://bugs.launchpad.net/lightdm I searched for similar bugs but I couldn't find any I think this one fits quite well: https://bugs.launchpad.net/lightdm/+bug/797249 Ooops yeah Oh, just noticed it is a dup (of [1]) and it is already fixed. I am doing some investigation here... [1] https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lightdm/+bug/793366 I think the right way on Gentoo to set the locale system-wide is to put something like this: LANG="de_DE.utf8" LC_COLLATE="C" into /etc/env.d/02locale. But LightDM does not seem to use this values, the greeter's interface is still English and the locale is also not forwared to the user's session. But I do not know how to solve this issue correctly. There is also a bug-report in Ubuntu regarding this issue: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lightdm/+bug/794315 as i understand and checked on ubuntu 9 i have one at work). it's using by default ~/.dmrc with syntax : cat ~/.dmrc [Desktop] Language=en_US.utf8 Layout=us Langlist=en_US:en LCMess=en_US.UTF-8 Session=xubuntu as i'll get home i'll try to make similar file with configs and re-check. i would post results. if it work, maybe we should add to ebuild the autogeneration of that file from /etc/env.d/02locale. But still it wouldn't be right but just workaround as it's not gentoo's way of locales config. So we need to wait till developers change it. This problem on "~arm" with x11-misc/lightdm-1.0.5[gtk introspection branding -qt4]. xxx@ac100 ~ $ eselect locale list Available targets for the LANG variable: [1] C [2] en_US.utf8 [3] POSIX [4] ru_RU.utf8 * [ ] (free form) xxx@ac100 ~ $ This should be fixed in 1.0.6-r1 (In reply to comment #11) > This should be fixed in 1.0.6-r1 Can confirm it works for me with version 1.0.6-r2 and ~/.dmrc given by Misha.
