On occasion, when installing some Debian images, the language selection may not work correctly. Choosing the Galician language (gl_ES.UTF-8), the system might start in English with all the folders also in English instead of in Galician. Here’s how to fix this so that the desired language appears:
sudo apt install locales sudo dpkg-reconfigure locales sudo reboot sudo locale-gen gl_ES.UTF-8 sudo localectl set-locale LANG=gl_ES.UTF-8
Exit root and switch to the user you regularly use. From there, reconfigure the folder names in /home/user:
xdg-user-dirs-update --force
In case you are using the Plasma desktop, this may still not resolve the issue. To fix this, edit the following file for each user you employ:
nano ~/.config/plasma-localerc
It should look like this:
[Formats]
LANG=gl_ES.UTF-8
To synchronize the time:
sudo apt install systemd-timesyncd
Check that the service is active:
sudo timedatectl status
