Partly. :-\

~/.pam_environment gets written now but it doesn't get read in every case.

I am testing with two test accounts and my own one on two different
clients: Only with *one* of the accounts the language settings are
respected. Although ~/.pam_envirment gets written when changing settings
it seems to be ignored by two of the three identities. On *both* machines.

I have no idea why... ~/.profile are identical, copying .pam_enviroment
doesn't help either.

On one of the clients I added the infamous
'session required pam_env.so' at the end of /etc/pam.d/common-sesion
but that didn't help either.

Any ideas?

Thanks for your work and brains so far!
