Upg. to kubuntu 10.10 – Weeks starts at mondays

As I said in my post earlier I have upgraded to Kubuntu 10.10 from 9.10. When I did the install i thought I did set Swedish as the default except for languages. I hate to have commands replying back in Swedish and so, but I still prefer things to be in Swedish, like money and date format and so on. But apparently I missed something.

The little applet that sits down at the right side of the task-bar and show the date and time, has a nice pop-up calendar if you click on it. But it showed weeks to start on Sundays, not on Monday as we do it in Sweden. So after some looking i found where the settings where.

Start up System Setting ->    Locale ->  TimeAndDate ->  First day of week and change that to Monday.

Logout and in again and it works as it should.

  1. Well i guess if you’re Muslim they start on Saturday, or Jewish then Sunday. It seems a bit bizarre to us, but strangely most calendar templates I’ve come across when searching recently start on Sunday, so this may be the norm across the pond.

    The conspiracy theorists are right! Judaism is taking over the world 🙂
