2. Choosing your Language +

+
+
+
+ + + +

The first step is to + choose your preferred language. +

+ + +

+ + +
Choosing the Default Language
+ +
+

+ + +

First open the tree relative to the continent you are located in, and then choose + the language you speak. Your language choice will affect the installer, the documentation, and + the system in general. +

+ + +

Click the Multiple languages button near the botom of the list to go to the screen to select additional languages for your workstation, thereby installing + the + language-specific files for system documentation and + applications. For example, if Spanish friends are to use your + machine, select English as the default language in the first screen + and Español in the Multiple languages screen. +

+ + +
+ + + + + + + + +
[Note]Note
+ +

You are advised to install the language of your keyboard and the language of the country you live in as additional languages + if they are not the same as your preferred language. +

+ +
+
+ + +
+ + + + + + + + +
[Note]Note
+ +

About + UTF-8 (unicode) support: Unicode is a + character encoding intended to cover all existing + languages. Mageia Linux uses UTF-8 by default for all languages +

+ + + +
+
    +
  1. + +

    If you know UTF-8 encoding doesn't work well for your language, tick the box Old compatibility (non-UTF) encoding at the top of the Multiple languages screen +

    + +
    2. +
  2. + +

    Be aware that this will then apply to all languages on your system +

    + +
    3. +
+
+ +
+
+ + +

Note that + you're not limited to choosing a single additional language. You + may choose several, or even install them all by selecting the + All languages box. Selecting support for a + language means translations, fonts, spell checkers, etc. will also + be installed for that language. Make sure you select all languages + which are likely to be useful on the machine now, it may be difficult + to configure support for languages not chosen at + install time at a later date. +

+ + + + +
+ + + + + + + + +
[Tip]Tip
+ +

To switch between the various + languages installed on your system, you can launch the + localedrake command as root to + change the language used by the entire system. Running the command + as a regular user will only change the language settings for that + particular user. +
