Doesn't seem to serous, but just, right click -> create, and then rez a prim. While the Edit box is open, (it doesn't matter if 'More' is on or not), and you have the prim selected, you get,... 2006-02-04T17:02:58Z WARNING: Failed to set locale en_US.iso8859-1 2006-02-04T17:02:58Z WARNING: Failed to set locale en_US.iso8859-1 2006-02-04T17:02:58Z WARNING: Failed to set locale en_US.iso8859-1 2006-02-04T17:02:58Z WARNING: Failed to set locale en_US.iso8859-1 2006-02-04T17:02:58Z WARNING: Failed to set locale en_US.iso8859-1 2006-02-04T17:02:58Z WARNING: Failed to set locale en_US.iso8859-1 over and over again in the terminal. Then as soon as you let go or, 'unselect' the prim by left clicking somewhere on the ground, the terminal spam stops. All the text\fonts in the viewer are showing up fine (aside from the 'hover-text-clone' thing). No idea why SL would want to change the locale, while one has a prim highlighted. But just wanted to report a bug so I can feel all shiny and special  . EDIT: to add my specs..

Yeah. So much so that it drowns my fps if I leave the command window open!

I seem to be OK on this.
But then, I selected US English as the install locale, for compatibility...
I had to set my keyboard to German, thats all...

Okay I think I have worked out a less dramatic solution than a complete reinstall. Stealing the following from a seemingly unrealated issue on ubuntu LUG website (NLLUG): Ubuntu's default seems to be to use UTF-8 locales, and by using sudo dpkg-reconfigure locales you can *add* iso8859-1 locales (no, you can't get rid of the UTF-  |

Getting rid of UTF-8 would be counterproductive, I think... the ISO locales are the older far less flexible locales taken over from Unix. UTF-8 is plan 9 - a new generation, and MUCH more capable
