Problems with latest OS2007 HE and regional settings
 

Hi there:

The latest version of the OS2007 HE (46-3) seems to have a bug where the regional settings are reset to English UK even if you selected say, English USA. When you try to set them back it tells you that its about to close down the apps and restart the tablet (a 770). When its about to do that it complains that "memory is full" and that "more free space is needed". This was also an issue with 45-3, but was not an issue with the first HE released.

on an related note, I tried posting a comment on maemo.org on this link:

I opened an account on garage.maemo.org in order to chime in, but the username and password are not recognize and I can't post the comment.

Thanks for any help you may provide.

Thank you so much!!!! That did the trick. I was a bit scared at first being so rusty on my commands, but with a bit of research I got it and it works like a charm. Thanks for taking the time to answer my question. I really appreciate it.

just checked the file on N800 and it is owned by user:users there but by root on 770. Maybe setting owner back to user should allow it to be changed from control panel too.
These are the only two files (locale,locale.orig) on my N800 in that directory which are not owned by root.

EDIT:
Tested and it works. Of course you need to be root to run those chmod and chgrp commands.
