GDM. XFCE. Changing locales.
The GDM on Fedora 15 doesn't seem to have a way to change the language/locale. I use the GDM when booting into XFCE. So, to change from English to Bengali (India) I had to:
- use GDM to log in to GNOME3
- use the Region settings to change the default English to Bengali (India)
- log out of GNOME 3
- log back in again using GDM but this time using XFCE
And, then spend a couple of minutes fixing/changing the preferred fonts because they don't look too good. That's a very annoying experience. Is there an easier way to accomplish this ?
