以Slackware12.2為例：

首先安裝好slackware12.2，裝好后敲入startx，進入圖形界面。第一次登錄圖形界面時會提示你是哪國人(查下戶口先^_^)，堅定的選擇中國，默認語言就是簡體中文，確定后就進入了全中文圖形界面。然而進去后就看到很不舒服的中文，看到的中文界面詞組基本都是缺胳膊少腿的，必須要從頭設置了。

打開終端(鼠標右鍵點運行，輸入konsole，就出來了)，輸入locale來看看語言設置，我的結果如下：

LANG=en_US.UTF-8

LC_CTYPE="en_US.UTF-8"

LC_NUMERIC="en_US.UTF-8"

LC_COLLATE="en_US.UTF-8"

LC_TIME="en_US.UTF-8"

LC_MONETARY="en_US.UTF-8"

LC_MESSAGES="en_US.UTF-8"

LC_PAPER="en_US.UTF-8"

LC_NAME="en_US.UTF-8"

LC_ADDRESS="en_US.UTF-8"

LC_TELEPHONE="en_US.UTF-8"

LC_MEASUREMENT="en_US.UTF-8"

LC_IDENTIFICATION="en_US.UTF-8"

LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8

意義如下：

1、語言符號及其分類(LC_CTYPE)

2、數字(LC_NUMERIC)

3、比較和排序習慣(LC_COLLATE)

4、時間顯示格式(LC_TIME)

5、貨幣單位(LC_MONETARY)

6、信息主要是提示信息,錯誤信息,狀態信息,標題,標簽,按鈕和菜單等(LC_MESSAGES)

7、姓名書寫方式(LC_NAME)

8、地址書寫方式(LC_ADDRESS)

9、電話號碼書寫方式(LC_TELEPHONE)

10、度量衡表達方式 (LC_MEASUREMENT)

11、默認紙張尺寸大小(LC_PAPER)

12、對locale自身包含信息的概述(LC_IDENTIFICATION)

下邊的設置都是對/etc/profile.d/lang.sh的改動，改動前將文件中都注釋掉(加＃，可別習慣加//^_^)：

一).如果你需要一個純中文的GUI的話，寫入LC_ALL=zh_CN.UTF-8，或者LANG=zh_CN.UTF-8都可以。那12個LC_**不寫。

二).如果你也和我一樣想要英文CLI，中文GUI，那么就寫入LC_CTYPE＝zh_CN.UTF-8，LANG=en_US.UTF-8就可以了。其他的不寫。

三).假如你高興的話，可以把12個LC_**一一設定成你需要的值，打造一個古靈精怪的系統： LC_CTYPE＝zh_CN.GBK/GBK(使用中文編碼內碼GBK字符集)； LC_NUMERIC=en_GB.ISO-8859-1(使用大不列顛的數字系統) LC_MEASUREMENT=de_DE@euro.ISO-8859-15(德國的度量衡使用ISO-8859-15字符集) 羅馬的地址書寫方式，美國的紙張設定……。估計沒人這么干吧－ －！

下邊是我改動前的lang.sh:

#!/bin/sh # Set the system locale. (no, we don't have a menu for this ;-) # For a list of locales which are supported by this machine, type: # locale -a # en_US is the Slackware default locale: export LANG=en_US # 'C' is the old Slackware (and UNIX) default, which is 127-bit # ASCII with a charmap setting of ANSI_X3.4-1968. These days, # it's better to use en_US or another modern $LANG setting to # support extended character sets. #export LANG=C # There is also support for UTF-8 locales, but be aware that # some programs are not yet able to handle UTF-8 and will fail to # run properly. In those cases, you can set LANG=C before # starting them. Still, I'd avoid UTF unless you actually need it. #export LANG=en_US.UTF-8 # Another option for en_US: #export LANG=en_US.ISO8859-1 # One side effect of the newer locales is that the sort order # is no longer according to ASCII values, so the sort order will # change in many places. Since this isn't usually expected and # can break scripts, we'll stick with traditional ASCII sorting. # If you'd prefer the sort algorithm that goes with your $LANG # setting, comment this out. export LC_COLLATE=C # End of /etc/profile.d/lang.sh

這個是我設置后的lang.sh：

#!/bin/sh # Set the system locale.

至于其他的linux發行版，我想原理應該差不多，大家研究研究吧。與君共勉！！
