Interestingly, I have 2 users in the system and the other user is now English too. I thought .dmrc is a per-user locale setting? Anyway, the point is changing the system language setting modified .dmrc from English to Korean the 1st time. The next time I ran it, it did not modify the .dmrc settings back to English. In other words, the Language Selection dialog has a bug in it. Not sure if this is a Gnome project dialog or a Fedora one. Anyway, I'm happy now I have my default language choice back. Thanks.

I fixed this by editing /home/<myusername>/.dmrc and changing Language=en_USE.UTF-8. Interestingly, I have 2 users in the system and the other user is now English too. I thought .dmrc is a per-user locale setting?

yeah, .dmrc is for local user only selected language in GDM Menu gets written into that file while login

...

Anyway, the point is changing the system language setting modified .dmrc from English to Korean the 1st time. The next time I ran it, it did not modify the .dmrc settings back to English. In other words, the Language Selection dialog has a bug in it. Not sure if this is a Gnome project dialog or a Fedora one.

system-config-langauge is used for changing system wide language configuration, It not deals with local user .dmrc but /etc/sysconfig/i18n file

...

Anyway, I'm happy now I have my default language choice back.

Not working here, I had set the language to spanish for testing and even if I select english in the gdm menu it starts up always in spanish. The English option in the menu is in italics, could be a hint? -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Now I change in /var/cache/gdm/<myusername>/dmrc, and return to English.

Yes, it's known and under the discussion in upstream bug. Currently you need to modify the file in the cache dir.
