Calendar

[BenTrein]

I've come to notice that my computer is trying to convince me that the week now starts on Tuesday. Were it Monday or Sunday, I could live with it - the latter I wouldn't believe, but that's beside the point.

It's probably real easy to resolve, but how can I set my calendar so that the week starts on Monday??? I don't remember setting it to start on Tuesday!

Check this screenshot for details.

This is a known bug if you set your language to en_UK in Gnome.... Still waiting for a fix. Look through the forum and you'll see it's been discussed before.

only fix for it will probably be in 2.26 of Gnome

Thanks, both... The fix is going back to en_US.

New problem: How do I switch back to English (US)? I mean, I go to Administration -> Language, and select English (US), and it tells me this will take effect next time I log in. But it doesn't all language stays the same, except that in the language screen it says I'm using English (US).
I tried it by switching to Dutch (I am Dutch, so it's not a big problem), but I can't switch back to English! It stays Dutch, no matter what I do! HELP!

Something I can think of that should work, is to manually remove all the English (US) language files, then reboot, and switch to English (US) so it has to re-download all those files. But where are those files?

Edit: At least the calendar is correct in Dutch! But also non-Dutch speakers wish to use this computer...

Try:

system-config-language

Tell the other users to learn Dutch? .

(Ok, I admit this may not be practical).

Hm, good idea! I teach English for a living, but I could expand of course... Would be a good career move!
