Could you give more details? Distro? Gcompris built from source, from rpm? Which verion of gcompris?
gcompris and gcompris-data are 4.2-1 Debian linux, kernel 2.4.21 Distro is Libranet 2.8.1 Downloaded gcompris from unstable repository deb package from debian.org I went back to the testing version 3.2-3 and have no problems
Hello, It might be related to the LANG environment variable being not set. See: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=224887
>Hello, >It might be related to the LANG environment variable being not set. >See: >http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=224887 THAT WAS IT!!! Thanks My quick and dirty fix is (using bash shell) LANG='C' export LANG gcompris It seem to me that gcompris should default to some sane value if a valid one is not found.
