seems you tested a lot in this direction.
What do you use LDM_LANGUAGE for?

When I set one client to:

[client1]
    LDM_LANGUAGE="es_ES.utf8"    # or de_DE.utf8

It does *not* change the language of LDM. The login window keeps saying
'username' and 'Preferences' in english.

What it changes is the default locale for the user, who logs in. When I open a
konsole, the locale is es_ES.utf8 and non-KDE programs like gimp also have
the user interface (menus, etc.) in spanish.

KDE-programs still stay in the user-defined language (like expected).

Hence, I see little use of this parameter.

I asked it some months ago but did not get an answer:
How do I change the language for ldm (login window)?

TIA
Helmut

PS:
I use kubuntu 8.04.1 (Hardy Heron) with ltsp5.
