Here's the output of locale:

LANG=en_US

LC_CTYPE=en_US

LC_NUMERIC=el_GR

LC_TIME=en_US

LC_COLLATE=en_US

LC_MONETARY=el_GR

LC_MESSAGES=en_US

LC_PAPER=el_GR

LC_NAME=el_GR

LC_ADDRESS=el_GR

LC_TELEPHONE=el_GR

LC_MEASUREMENT=el_GR

LC_IDENTIFICATION=el_GR

LC_ALL=

I tried to configure it only in MCC. What i have to add in xorg.conf or i18n?

For troublefree Greek support, you must use UTF-8.

 

Add to all the lines in the i18n file .UTF-8 at the end, and set the LANG as:

en_US.UTF-8:en_US:en

 

 

Your input device section in xog.conf should be something like that:

 

Section "InputDevice"

Identifier "Keyboard0"

Driver "keyboard"

Option "XkbModel" "pc105"

Option "XkbLayout" "us,el"

Option "XkbOptions" "grp:alt_shift_toggle,grp_led:scroll"

EndSection

 

If you set your system like that then you don't need at all the KDE keyboard switcher- all is done at the xorg level, which is good (e.g. Openoffice working properly without any KDE bindings).

 

The above changes require restart to apply properly.

 

You can also change the locale settings via mcc, and tick in the "use unicode by default" option.
