For Shift first open “System Settings”, then “Software Sources”, then under “Mirrors” first click on “Main” and select the faster of the two mirrors. Then click on “Base”, wait for some time and then select the fastest or closest mirror. After that  click on “Update Cache”.

Now open a terminal and enter:

sudo apt install –reinstall locales

Once the locales have been reinstalled, go back to “System Settings”, select “Languages”, then click on “Install/Remove Languages”, click on “Add”, then scroll down and select the version of French you need and click on “Install”. The new language should now be shown in the list of the selected languages. It will probably say “some language packs are missing”. Click on that, and then click on “Install Language Packs”. This will now download and install the complete language pack for that Language. You can repeat that for the other installed languages. Once that is finished you can close that window.

Now back in the “Language Settings” window you can select your display language and region locale. After that logout and then back in, or reboot, and if you changed the display language to French, most things should now be shown in French.

For LinDoz the Procedure is similar, except that you can leave the terminal and “sudo apt install –reinstall locales” commands out.

@ rindy,

I have  make that this morning with success , for the French language that is OK , but  I have an other trouble , your  mail specific for  makululu is not thunderbird I use it since  10 years ago…but not your own mail.

But for make a correction I go to “about:config” ===> general.useragent & correction “us-ENG” to “Fr-FR” but for the choice & changing between T.B or your own mail “trucmachin” I don’t remember his name, sorry  😎  😎  For the moment  I continue for use this  OS makululu very close of cinnamon. For the moment  I have any little  trouble for changing anything to using perfect it . If I stay with Makululu why not? I’m a  special user, I have  15 OSs install on my PC  in 4 hard disk intern, extern or notebook..Many thanks for your help … C u soon  😎  😎

Install thunderbird via Synaptic package manager (I use it too). Then once installed, in “System Settings” click on “Preferred Applications”, and under “Mail”, select Thunderbird as the default mail client. Via Synaptic you can also remove the original mail client.

Puis, une fois installé, dans « Paramètres système » cliquez sur « Applications préférées », et sous « Mail », sélectionnez Thunderbird comme client de messagerie par défaut. Via Synaptic vous pouvez également supprimer le client de messagerie d’origine.

 

Ok mais c’est exactement ce que j’ai fais… avec synaptic, T.B. , F.F et Chromium sont installés  😎 après être retourné vers makulu pas trop de PB….pour le moment…Tout est enfin en Français OUF ! quoique ? j’ai un dernier soucis avec les “sources” apt ou je suis embêté …Bon, pas de gêne, mais je suis en ce moment avec le forum et c’est en Français … That’s  my answer in English that’s all   😎  😎 et avec  Firefox 52.7 C’est vraiment très drôle? non ? aller  @ +  C U soon

Hello rindy,

I have a new trouble , impossible to open screensaver or xscreensaver  with the open it  after 7 mn!  I use it since  10 years ago without trouble..If I said that,  it’s because  my own PC is open 24/24 hours each day never it’s close . I can’t use this on makulu see u soon ,  many thanks  😎

I haven’t had any issues so far with the screensaver. Open System Settings and select “Screensaver”. Now you can set the configuration of the screensaver the way you need.

@rindi,

hello, for this times every is OK , but I have always the trouble with the configuration of the screensaver.. When I go to system I see screensaver I open it ?? for me it’s very complicated … But your opinion ? It’s possible to remove “screensaver” made in for makululu/cinnamon & install “xscreensaver” like my screenshot  2 days ago?? I think it’s possible ? but why not I make that ??  I keep makululinux, that’s all ! see you soon
