Faren heit vs celcius
I am running Mepis 6.5 and the kweather on the toolbar has temps all recorded in celcius. In mepis 6.0 they were in Fahrenheit. Is there a way to change to Fahrenheit again?
RE: Faren heit vs celcius
After reading your thread, I realized that I too suffer from lack of Farenheit units in kweather. I wasn't able to find a way to change this directly through the kweather configuration panel, but I found a way to di it in kcontrol.
I went to the Control Center and selected: Regional and Accessibility-->Country/Region & Language-->Other. I changed "Metric" to "Imperial" (and fixed my paper size, too). I then had to do some funky stuff with kweather after that (removing and re-adding all my weather stations), but probably logging out and back in would have worked just as well.
Kweather is using Farenheit for me now!
I use Gentoo, but probably Mepis is close enough that this should work.
Good luck!
That's how I finally got it too
I had some help from someone on another board who took me through the same steps you described and changed the setting to Fahrenheit.
There are so many things that can be done on here that it will take me along time to get familiar with them.
Thanks
