Gtk-WARNING **: Locale not supported by C library.

Hi, I'm pretty new to Linux and I could really use some help on this one! This is my second Arch install. After the first, which I installed to learn about Linux, I figured there'd be more user-friendly and complete distro's (like SUSE, Debian, etc.). I was wrong
Anyway, this is my second install, but ever since I installed it (and X11, ati-fglrx, gnome and gnome-extra) certain apps give my this error when run from a console. All of them start and work perfectly, except one: gnome-keyboard-properties. I fails to run and starts a bug buddy report window, while outputting the following messages on the console:
[***@*** ~]$ gnome-keyboard-properties
(gnome-keyboard-properties:4727): Gtk-WARNING **: Locale not supported by C library.
Using the fallback 'C' locale.
(gnome-keyboard-properties:4727): Gdk-WARNING **: locale not supported by C library
(gnome_segv2:4728): Gtk-WARNING **: Locale not supported by C library.
Using the fallback 'C' locale.
(gnome_segv2:4728): Gdk-WARNING **: locale not supported by C library
(bug-buddy:4729): Gtk-WARNING **: Locale not supported by C library.

(bug-buddy:4729): Gdk-WARNING **: locale not supported by C library
** (bug-buddy:4729): WARNING **: Couldn't load icon for Open Folder
Failed to read a valid object file image from memory.
I've generated the en_US.utf8 locale using locale-gen, edited rc.conf accordingly and I used the hwd-generated keyboard entry for xorg.conf that worked on my previous install.
I've been trying things with my xorg.conf. I used to leave XkbLayout and XkbVariant empty, like in the hwd-generated example, but now I'm using this:
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Cherry"
Driver "keyboard"
Option "CoreKeyboard"
Option "XkbRules" "xorg"
Option "XkbModel" "pc105"
Option "XkbLayout" "us"
Option "XkbVariant" "intl"
EndSection
This has a noticable effect: both ' and " require an extra spacebar hit. Pretty anoying, but this at least shows is had effect on gnome. Also, the Keyboard Indicator Applet shows the layout correctly.
I've tried other things, like uninstalling gnome and gnome-extra using pacman -Rnd as to leave no trace, and reïnstalling it. And I can't find anything on Google...
PS I'm running this on an athlon64 with a radeon x700, ftp-install from a 0.7.2 i686 base CD.

I've done a total reïnstall - again. gnome-keyboard-properties works again! However, I still get these errors when opening Gtk-apps:
(gksu:4669): Gtk-WARNING **: Locale not supported by C library.
Using the fallback 'C' locale.
I've left xorg.conf's XkbLayout emply, which defaults to "us". There's a related option called "KEYMAP" in rc.conf, which has "us" as default, too. As I said, gnome-keyboard-properties now works and correctly displays "Generic 105-key.." etc. and "U.S. English".
I think I now have /etc/hosts' loopback correctly setup:
127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain myhostname
192.168.x.xxx myhostname.localdomain myhostname
I'm really out of ideas here. Does anyone know whether this is normal or harmful?
[[ EDIT ]]
Solved. I actually forgot to generate the locales this time. I don't know what it was last time...

For my information, where its said to do this? When installing a fresh install and all packages updated, the locale problem is there. Is this a bug or something what everyone supposed to know?
Why the default locale configure is not enough in /etc/rc.conf, why to bother about /etc/locale.gen?
rc.conf wrote:LOCALE="en_US.utf8"
EDIT:
I took a look at /etc/locale.gen. I don't know what to uncomment, its like reading a foreign language.

Locale not supported

I updated tarantella native client to
version 3.42 for solaris2.8.
Now I get the error message
<Failed to process Tarantella server information>
at login. (version 3.3 works fine)
The command line shows warnings:
Warning: locale not supported by Xlib, locale set to C
Warning: X locale modifiers not supported, using default
It seems to be problem with locale settings, already described in a
previous newsgroup posting.
Setting LANG=en_GB (or other values) did not help.
Where I can get correct locale-files?
(Not included in the client distributions)
Thanks a lot,
JU

Please check your Apache Logfile.
The first connect to SGD by NC is to the Web Server. NC requested
serverinfo.html
Try in a Webbrowser:
http://<servername>/tarantella/cgi-bin/ttawebtop.cgi/tarantella/resources/login/sco/tta/boot/serverinfo.html
You will get an empty page. Look into the Source code of this empty page.
It show something like:
<html><head>


<title>Tarantella server information</title>











</html>
This is the information NC needs to connect to your SGDEE Server.
Check you can telnet to ConnectionHost Port AsadPort

Thank you for the solution that helped to solve
the locale problem. Unfortunally there is still
the error
<Failed to process Tarantella server information>
after approx. 20sec during login.
Our previous version 3.20 works correct
with the same server/login/pw.
Is there a way to identify (debug) the problem.
Thank you very much,

Locale not supported by Xlib

You forgot the dash. Caps might matter as well. I have:

You could also try running "locale-gen" as root and here's a wiki article about how to correctly set this all up:

Then , I solved deleting the file and reinstalling fontconfig.
Byt he way, I do not post in the forum to be joked, if you mean to answer in such a way, better do not post at all.

[Solved] Cpupower: some settings not supported?

Hey all,
I just installed cpupower instead of cpufrequtils and I think I got it up and running (module acpi-cpufreq, daemon cpupower in /etc/rc.conf and edited /etc/conf.d/cpupower).
I also tried the newer settings mc_scheduler and smp_scheduler as seen below in the code part. However, when I then restart the daemon, I get Error setting sched-mc not supported. Why? I own an Intel Core i5 430M and I thought that cpupower was supposed to be more compatible with it than cpufrequtils, e.g. support more of its features.
# Utilizes cores in one processor package/socket first before processes are
# scheduled to other processor packages/sockets.
# See man (1) CPUPOWER-SET for additional details.
#mc_scheduler=1
# Utilizes thread siblings of one processor core first before processes are
# scheduled to other cores. See man (1) CPUPOWER-SET for additional details.
#smp_scheduler=1

Yes that is the "smp scheduler", the config file uses the wrong abbreviation there i think. It works though:
$ cat /etc/rc.d/cpupower
params+=(${smp_scheduler:+-s $smp_scheduler})
$ man cpupower set | grep smt
--sched-smt, -s [ VAL ]

Is XIB not supported in static library (for creating Native Extension)?

Hello,
These day I'm trying to build a static library in XCode to build a Native Extension. The original project from which I'm creating a static library is runs well on device. But when I creates a static library project along with one XIB file within, and port it to the Adobe AIR, the expected XIB view never opens up.
Somewhere some gentleman mentioned that static library can not include XIB, graphics file etc. Is that true (http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2797214/trouble-using-xib-files-in-libraries)? Can't I bundle an ANE with XIB support?
Thanks.
Santanu

Also want to know this Current project may require loading xib over Adobe Air. I suggest to start from here http://stackoverflow.com/questions/7814928/how-to-load-a-xib-file-in-a-uiview and this http://forums.adobe.com/message/4621408
Let me know if this works and would be gr8 if you can share your solution as opensource

UK Keyboard Map / Gtk-WARNING

Hi,
I'm busy configuring an Arch/ratpoison install and am finding that I repeatedly get this same message while running programs. It does not seem to affect the way they function, but it is highly annoying. I also can't seem to figure out how to change the X keyboard layout into the UK style, and thought maybe the two problems were related (or not). Any suggestions? Thanks
Gtk-WARNING **: Locale not supported by C library.

To change the X keyboard layout to the UK style, use
