I now live in France but my mother tongue is English (Scottish actually). When I installed, I made the mistake of admitting that I was in France and the first time I logged on, the login prompt was in French. Not a major problem, and I changed my locale to United Kingdom - and next time, English - no problem.
Next time however, it's German! Anyone know why?

Hi John. A couple of questions: First, what version of Mepis are you trying to run? Next, when you made the Locale changes, how and where did you make them? Did you apply the changes?
You mention the "login prompt". For clarification, is this the initial graphical (kdm) login prompt?
I'm in no way a language or "locale guy", but there may be one or two simple settings that need to be made.
Please post back with further info and we'll see if we can pull you along
