UPDATE: Thanks to Hinnerk, the locale error is fixed. I am still looking for ideas on the glibc error tho. Since this original post, I have tried the following versions of glibc with the same result. sys-libs/glibc-2.18-r1 sys-libs/glibc-2.19-r1 So, it seems something else is wrong here. I have googled and most things I find are with older kernels and I'm using the newest kernel I can find in the tree. 3.15.5-gentoo Ideas? Fixes? Bug that needs Raid? Dale :-) :-)
