(process:15674): Rofi-WARNING **: 13:19:12.540: Failed to set locale.
m@kubuntu-MS-7C37:~$
and no Rofi-GUI-Window visible
# sudo localectl set-locale LANG=en_DE.UTF-8
# sudo nano /etc/locale.gen
there was no
de_DE.UTF-8
Update becouse there are different:
sudo localectl set-locale LANG=de_DE.UTF-8
sudo nano /etc/locale.gen
de_DE.UTF-8
sudo nano /etc/ssh/ssh_config
Find this line:
SendEnv LANG LC_*
Add a # sign at the beginning to comment it out. Save and close the file.
i reboot the system an got again
m@kubuntu-MS-7C37:~$ rofi -show
and no Rofi-GUI-Window visible
