In /etc/sysconfig/i18n, set the LANG="en_AU" variable, and the SUPPORTED
to whatever you need it to be.

For good measure, I also set LANG in /etc/profile, and in ~/.profile. 
It's *going* to be my way, dammit!!

If you use GDM, you can also set the default locale in the login
screen.  It's under one of the menus.

I actually reported a bug in the ls sort order (who the F$@$K designed
the en_US collate order!! It's totally bogus!!), and the gentleman who
responded explained about the locales, LANG, LC_COLLATE, etc., and the
propensity of distributions to muck about with those w/o letting the
users know. As a result, I now use "LANG=C".
