The same problem in SuSE 9.1 with OOo 1.1.1 (all LC_* variables were the same)

I also want to note the settings of X Window System
In mandrakelinux
/etc/X11/XF86Config-4
...
Section "InputDevice"
    Identifier "Keyboard1"
    Driver "Keyboard"
    Option "XkbModel" "pc105"
    Option "XkbLayout" "us,ru(winkeys)"
    Option "XkbOptions" "grp:caps_toggle,grp_led:scroll"
EndSection
...

In SuSE
...
Section "InputDevice"
  Driver       "Keyboard"
  Identifier   "Keyboard[0]"
  Option       "Protocol" "Standard"
  Option       "XkbLayout" "us,ru"
  Option       "XkbModel" "pc105"
  Option       "XkbRules" "xfree86"
  Option       "XkbOptions" "grp:caps_toggle,grp_led:scroll"
  Option       "XkbVariant" ",winkeys"
EndSection
...

Thanks.

Hi,

tried it with your locale settings and could not reproduce. Also had a look into
the source code for the locale data and have seen that the decimal separator is
a comma.

So this seems to be a problem with your system itself. Please have a look at
Tools-Options-Language Settings. Change the locale to default or if default is
set change it to Russian. 

Sorry for no better reply but we can't help you on this.

Hi,

Frank, i want to reopen the bug and describe it more accurate.

I've downloaded OOo_1.1.3_Win32Intel_install.exe an
OOo_1.1.3_LinuxIntel_install.tar.gz  builds and test it.

The same problem (in Windows build too). When typing numbers using numeric
keyboard OOo pastes points instead of commas. 


See the description of the problem in other words

beginning from
5.There's one useful feature ....

Thanks.

Hi,

the numeric keypad was the missing information. According to this I have to set
this Issue as double to Issue 1820 which is quite long to read but you should do
it anyway.

Thanks for your help.

Frank
