Hi,

I could not find either .profiles or .gnomerc in my system (CentOS 4.3 
~= RHEL 4 U3) so I created .gnomerc and put export LANG=fr_FR.euro inside.

Then I rebooted the machine and LANG was en_US.UTF-8.
When I do export from terminal it sets the variable, but this does not 
change apps behavior.

I can set default language logging locally, but when i log via NX it 
gets system default values, not user ones.
The problem is only with GNOME - KDE has user language setup and it uses 
it with NX login.

I did not change anything in NX setup - rpm installation
