Re: [SLUG] Locale settings in Debian

[James Gray]

You haven't set up your keyboard with a European mapping by any chance? If
so, this might solve the problem for you:

sudo dpkg-reconfigure keyboard-configuration

Also, you might want to try launching from the command line and for a
specific locale and see if it fixes anything:

LANG=en_AU.utf8 google-chrome

If that fixes it, then also check your locale settings in your environment
(window manager et al).

HTH.

Thanks James, but it turned out that Chrome somehow setup a currency 
conversion extension. Once I deactivated and removed it all works as 
expected.
