Can you use the , instead or . for currency in any other locale settings, for example the global setting for Mandriva on your machine? We had this problem in Ubuntu's Launchpad Answers section a long time ago and found the South African settings refused to allow the , to be used and it turned out to be a long-running argument in the translators/LoCo team. Apparently the vocal majority saw . as being more modern and/or less dispruptive because the , is used as a special character in formatting apparently

Java version is Sun 1.6.0.22. My version does not crash and I can also change UI from Français (France) to English (US) and back without any problems. I have 3 other Mdv + KDE + LO setups in our house at this point and these do not have this problem. Not sure if this is a problem with Gnome as it seems we have the same setup.
