hi !

i need to boot using lang=fr as i'm a french frog. (and because my keyboard is an 'azerty' one as every french keyboards are)
unfortunately, i can't start abiword :
Gdk-WARNING **: locale not supported by C library
error convertir utf8 to iso 8859 1
914 aborted

similar problem occurs with amsn :
couldn't open "lang/langfr" (...)

thanks for helping me in setting up DSL on my girlfriend's laptop !
