localedrake This toolSie können das Werkzeug über die Kommandozeile aufrufen, indem sie localedrake als root eingeben can be found in the System section of the Mageia Control Center (MCC) labelled "Manage localization for your system". It opens with a window in which you can choose your language. The choice is adapted to languages selected during installation. The Advanced button give access to activate compatibility with old encoding (non UTF8). The second window shows a list of countries according to the selected language. The button Other Countries gives access to countries not listed. Sie sollten Ihre Sitzung nach allen Modifikationen neu starten

In the Other Countries screen you can also select an input method (from the drop-down menu at the bottom of the list). Input methods allow users to input multilingual characters (Chinese, Japanese, Korean, etc). For Asian and African locales, IBus will be set as default input method so users should not need to configure it manually. Other input methods (SCIM, GCIN, HIME, etc.) also provide similar functions and can, if not available from the drop-down menu, be installed in another part of the Mageia Control Center. See .
