If your using cinnamon-2.2.x try installing mintlocale package.

I'm trying to adapt a Pisilinux Cinnamon desktop. I do not use Linux Mint.

leigh123linux commented 10 years ago

Fedora will use mintlocale since the removal of the region panel in cinnamon-control-center

Mintlocale is too distro specific for me. As variant you can return old region panel. Here is set of patches that I am using in Alt Linux:

If you do an upgrade from Mint 16 to 17 you don't see the language icon in the system settings! The 'old language settings' are still available via the menu!

I made this procedure to upgrade: https://gist.github.com/hgomez/7074150#comment-1231871

This is a very anoying bug!

leigh123linux commented 10 years ago

@pvdl

I added mintlocale as a dependency to the fedora cinnamon package to prevent this.

pvdl commented 10 years ago

@leigh123linux Thanks! I installed it manually:

sudo apt-get install mintlocale

Now you can see the language icon in the System Settings!

pvdl commented 10 years ago

I installed the Mint 17 Release Candidate (RC): Package 'mintlocale' is installed and replaces 'gnome-language-selector'

If you do an upgrade from Mint 16 to 17 (RC): Package 'gnome-language-selector' is still installed and 'mintlocale' is missing.

@alihanozturk, does this issue still occur in Cinnamon 3.0?
