At the moment I'm using Ubuntu 12.04 and I would like to have the ability to have a language chooser on login screen. I tried the suggestion in comment #16, but even after restarting the computer I didn't see any change at login screen.
$ cat /etc/lightdm/lightdm-gtk-greeter.conf show-language-selector=true Personally I see potential in schools for this feature request. Eg. in our (Dutch speaking) school we have language classes for Dutch, French, Spanish and German (and even Chinese). Eg. my class has Dutch, French and English. I think it's interesting to be able to choose the language at login: if a pupil has an English class, he takes 'English' and if he has a French class, he takes 'French'. Microsoft Windows... try to defeat that :-)! -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to lightdm in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/803858 Title: No language chooser on login screen in LightDM Status in Light Display Manager: Fix Released Status in “lightdm” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Bug description: LightDM doesn't appear to have a language selection choice in the Login screen, we need this to switch between Chinese and English for regular use, this feature is present in GDM, and we are really want to have it in LightDm as well, including correct setup of the zh_CN.utf-8 locale.
