It would help if I knew Linux, but I'm not sure where to go from here.

If I just tap once on the file, locale, it opens in Leafpad and I get what is shown in Pic 3 on the above site.

Do I edit it and save as:

LANG="en_US.UTF-8"
LANGUAGE="zh_CN:zh:en_US:en"

Let me know and thanks for your help.
It looks like the above syntax is correct but my problem is that the Chinese firmware has locked me out from using Root.

Does anyone have a suggestion?

As I don't know Ubuntu/Linux, my guess is that I need to find out what the Root password is and assign myself the needed privileges to make the above change to Locale.
