Hi Tony, See below - looks like we discussed this before as the same thing was happening with the Xubuntu 8.10 CD that I posted back in March. ================================================ Lee Bengston <[email protected]> Thu, Aug 20, 2009 at 9:37 PM To: Xastir - APRS client software discussion <[email protected]> Tony, I just compared an installation of the March Xubuntu 8.10 CD to the new Ubuntu 9.04 CD. The March one definitely does output the same warnings that you are seeing. If I type export LANG=C in the terminal before I launch Xastir, then the problem goes away. It's not sticky, though, so I have to enter it every time before starting Xastir. On the new CD, the problem is not there. I'm guessing the reason is either due to a difference in defaults between Xubuntu and Ubuntu or between the 8.10 version and the 9.04 version.
