English/European under window

Ok, got the OS installed. Pretty much a piece of cake. Logged in and started seeing [English/European] under the bootom toolbar , and every window. Very annoying, so here's the fix.

Solution :

Edit the /etc/default/init

You may need to chmod it to edit, as mine was not writeable after the install

chmod 777 /etc/default/init

Then comment out the LANG line so that the system defaults to C as the default

#LANG=en_US.UTF-8

Now reset the file permissions on the init file

chmod 555 /etc/default/init

and reboot and your all set......
