12 This is a little bit OffTopic for the gentoo-vdr ML, but i will help you
13 to fix this and all other users they have the same problem.

19 1. Locale setting in /etc/locale.gen
20
21 add following to this file
22
23 en_US ISO-8859-1
24 en_US.UTF-8 UTF-8
25 fr_FR ISO-8859-1
26 fr_FR@euro ISO-8859-15
27 fr_FR.utf8 UTF-8
28
29 after this run locale-gen in console.
30 This will reduce the locales of a minimum
31
32 locale -a should then give following output:
33
34 C
35 fr_FR
36 fr_FR@euro
37 fr_FR.utf8
38 en_US
39 en_US.utf8
40 POSIX
41
42 Notice the exact spelling of utf8, this is very importend for
43 the next step. This is casesensitiv !!!
44
45 2. Edit the /etc/env.d/02locale
46
47 add only this lines
48
49 LANG="fr_FR.utf8"
50 LC_ALL="fr_FR.utf8"
51 GDM_LANG="fr_FR.utf8"
52
53 write this utf8 exact in the same spelling from your locale -a
54 output.
55
56 after this run
57
58 env-update && source /etc/profile in console.
59
60 your ouptut of locale should then be:
61
62 LANG=frFR.utf8
63 LC_CTYPE="fr_FR.utf8"
64 ...
65 ...
66 LC_IDENTIFICATION="fr_FR.utf8"
67 LC_ALL=fr_FR.utf8
68
69
70 Beside on this note, your kernel setting should be support utf8 NLS:
71
72 (utf8) Default NLS Option
73 <*> NLS UTF8
74
75 After this all is your locale setting ok on your system.
76
77 ----
78
79 The settings in /etc/conf.d/vdr should then be ok
80
81 VDR_SORT_ORDER="fr_FR"
82
83 LANG="fr_FR.utf8" # i didnt set this, the startscripts takes
84 automaticly the right one :)
85
86 Now should the VDR starts without problems.
87
88
89 Cheers , Bon jour, Salute :)
