I have found the language packs, they are in Firefox Extensions. I deleted them with "root@PCS:/usr/lib/firefox-addons/extensions# rm *.xpi".
The only word processing programs that I use are LibreOffice Writer, Lyx and Scribus. I don't think that they automatically
include languages. When installing Ubuntu language packs seem to be...

I have wasted hours on it, so I...
Eventually I had to replace the graphics card with an ATI Radeon HD 4350. It was the only way to resolve the issues that kept re-appearing when software changes were made.
Thank you for your suggestions. The first one I cannot use because the Software & Updates icon does not do anything when I click on it!
The second one brings me to the desktop, but unless there is...

When I re-formatted the drive in order to try Mint 14 ad then used Clonezilla there were no errors. Later on errors appeared again, but it has no apparent effect on computer use.
Every time I print a page with Scribus, it sends a blank sheet out as well.
If I export it to PDF, it prints correctly but the font is smaller.
Scribus must be adding a line feed, but I don't know...
