Locale problems with Xlib

Locale problems with Xlib

[Søren Dideriksen]

Hi, 

I just installed Ubuntu Linux Dapper Drake 6.06
Anyways - when I run Emacs I get 
~$ emacs
Warning: locale not supported by Xlib, locale set to C
~$ 

Result is that I can't use my danish keys. 
My Locale is 
~$ locale
LANG=en_DK.UTF-8
LANGUAGE=en_DK.UTF-8
LC_CTYPE="en_DK.UTF-8"
LC_NUMERIC="en_DK.UTF-8"
LC_TIME="en_DK.UTF-8"
LC_COLLATE="en_DK.UTF-8"
LC_MONETARY="en_DK.UTF-8"
LC_MESSAGES="en_DK.UTF-8"
LC_PAPER="en_DK.UTF-8"
LC_NAME="en_DK.UTF-8"
LC_ADDRESS="en_DK.UTF-8"
LC_TELEPHONE="en_DK.UTF-8"
LC_MEASUREMENT="en_DK.UTF-8"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="en_DK.UTF-8"
LC_ALL=
~$

Any ideas to how I fix this one.

Regards

I'd remove most of the LC_* variables, keeping only LC_ALL, which GNU  
Emacs understands and uses, and I'd set LC_ALL to the same value as  
LC_ALL.

Seems unrelated to Emacs.
Check your distribution's doc about how to set up locales.
