Hi. I have been useing DSL for about 1 week now, and even thouh its small, its (atlest so far) the best Linux for my old P1. To say the least im still new @ linux but im learning fast

I do have this problem here though...

I have tried a couple of diffrent distrub:s and in almost all of the others I have managed to change to my language (swedish) in both keyboard layout and timezone (to CEST/CET). But i cant get it to change in DSL...

I have found settings to change it in the controlpanel or right mouse menu, but it doesnt work.
In the keyboard settings i change it to sv (sv-latin1) and pick [ok]... nothing is changed, I have tried to reboot (with saved settings) or just restart windowmaker...

The other problem is with the timezones... I select to change the setting, pick 8 for 'Europe' , and then when i press [Enter] to get selections i get no selections what so ever... If i enter CEST, or anything then is changes to [CEST] instead of [], but it just repets the question Name: [CEST]... it ends with me haveing to use Ctrl + c to abort it.

Is it a bug?, am i doing something wrong? or is there some other way to change it?
