Bug Description
If I change the language for KDM on systemsettings, it doesn't works.
KDM always appears in english, unless I manually restart KDM from command line, then it shows up with the language I had set in systemsettings.
I'm using Kubuntu Intrepid. Same happens with KDM 4.1.2 and with 4.1.3 (from backport).
From the log, I saw that message:
kdm_greet[8486] Cannot set locale. Translations will not work.

Version: (using KDE 4.0.5)
Installed from: Ubuntu Packages
In the systemsettings - Advanced - Login
Manager I've set the langauage Russian (ru). In the
kdmrc I've got:
...
Language=ru
...
The login manager kdm shows me the user list (because
of the setting: UseTheme=false), but every label on
the screen, buttons and combo-list is in English and
not in Russian, as I set (Language=ru).
In the syslog I see:
kdm_greet[5063]: Cannot set locale. Translations will not work.
But!
If I login in console and execute
sudo service kdm-kde4 restart
After that all in login windows translated to Russian!
Why after Ubuntu bootup I see English and after manual restart kdm-kde4 i see Russian?
