Greetings to Porteus members,

I am not sure whats going wrong with my porteus installation inside hard disk,

Eg.
Created a folder in my desktop, default with New Folder,
Trying to rename it to some Chinese words, eg. 我的文件夹.

Error like below image.

Sorry,

Suspect this issue raised from locale setting after much google.

Found a solution for Debian,
https://people.debian.org/~schultmc/locales.html

1. Edit /etc/locale.gen as root. If /etc/locale.gen does not exist, create it. An example /etc/locale.gen is below.
2. Run /usr/sbin/locale-gen as root

But locale-gen doesn't exists in Porteus, not sure how to regenerate locale under Porteus.

Here the output from locale,

Code: Select all

almostroot@porteus:~# locale
locale: Cannot set LC_CTYPE to default locale: No such file or directory
locale: Cannot set LC_MESSAGES to default locale: No such file or directory

Not sure how I solved it, but somehow it works.

I removed the following:

Code: Select all

IPAfont-00303-noarch-1_Ahau.xzm       sazanami-fonts-ttf-20040629-noarch-1.xzm
freefont-20100919-noarch-1_Ahau.xzm   scim-1.4.14+extras-x86_64-1Ahau.xzm
glibc-i18n-x86_64-1ftm.xzm            ttf-indic-fonts-0.4.7.4-noarch-1.xzm
locales-en_US.utf8-x86_64-1prt.xzm    unifont-5.1.20080907-noarch-1_Ahau.xzm
odosung-font-1.4.2-noarch-1_Ahau.xzm  wqy-zenhei-font-ttf-0.8.38_1-noarch-1.xzm

Then I redo the Language setup through Porteus Settings Centre, now my system works as expected.

Code: Select all

almostroot@porteus:/# locale
LANG=en_US.utf8
