Country

[jaynpc]

I have installed Linux mint 8 and mistakenly choose the wrong country and in programs such as ubuntu tweak I can`t access the packages, it says that Is not allowed for my distribution.

What should I do? How can I change to US? And access the unbutu tweak packages.

Thanks guys =)

Hi,

Welcome to Linux Mint!

There's a couple of things that you can try, assuming that you wanted US English:

add the locale to the list of 'supported locales'

Code: Select all

sudo gedit /var/lib/locales/supported.d/local
en_US.UTF-8 UTF-8 (add this line)

Code: Select all

sudo gedit /etc/default/locale
LANG="en_US.UTF-8" (add this line)

Then you can try recreate the proper locales with the line

Code: Select all

sudo dpkg-reconfigure locales

Hope this helps.

Woah, the language itself I did manage to change in Language support

But what I thought that would affect is the distribution on Ubuntu Tweak *it says that I can`t use the packages stuff in apps*

I would like to access the applications *like third parties, etc* on ubuntu tweak.


(Thank you by the way)
