Different languages in the same applications under kde konsole

2008-03-19 Thread vittorio
I run  freebsd 7.0 and kde 3.5.8, both in Italian.
Now it happens that if I launch either gimp or abiword from the kde konsole 
the two applications speak Italian while if I launch them from the icons 
(that I created) on the desktop they switch to English.

Why is that and what can I do for making the applications speak Italian?

Hi Vittorio,

It could be possible you are launching said applications witch switches 
at the command line to make them run in Italian? If so, you can edit the 
icon to use the same switches as you are using at the command line.

It's probably an environment setting setting that you've got for your
shell that you haven't got withing X. Check for and set $LANG, $LC_ALL
in ~/.xsession.
