got this:
jochen@jochen-laptop:~$ locale
LANG=
LC_CTYPE="POSIX"
LC_NUMERIC="POSIX"
LC_TIME="POSIX"
LC_COLLATE="POSIX"
LC_MONETARY="POSIX"
LC_MESSAGES="POSIX"
LC_PAPER="POSIX"
LC_NAME="POSIX"
LC_ADDRESS="POSIX"
LC_TELEPHONE="POSIX"
LC_MEASUREMENT="POSIX"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="POSIX"
LC_ALL=
how to fix it in KDE?

That's interesting. I would have expected the other way around.
Either your LANG variable is not set globally and KDE does not know it
or KDE resets the variable.
To prevent the first situation I always set the LANG variable in
/etc/environment like this:
LANG=de_DE.UTF-8
If the problem still remains I'm not sure what to do. I know that you
can
set KDE's default language via kcontrol
under
"Regionaleinstellungen & ..."->"Land, Region & Sprache".
But I'm unsure
if
this option also affects "LANG".
Good luck!

Strange.
In "Regionaleinstellungen & ..."->"Land, Region & Sprache i
switched all
to "german"
The "Select System Language" has no effect. Normaly it starts the
"language-selecter-qt" But the pakage in the repo is for KDE4. Can Tim make
the
"language-selecter-qt" for kde3 available?
Does somebody know, why KDE don't take the /etc/environment language?

I don't exactly know WHAT i made, but some of this things worked in a strange way...
I think the right thing was, to set LANG=de_DE.UTF-8 in the ~/.bashrc
good night
