hi

I am going to make a clean install of Kubuntu 10.10.

I woluld like to install the system in English, but my family (the Client User) would like to have the system in Spanish.

Can I install the OS in English and can my Family choose the language for their session to be Spanish?

Thanks for your help!

Just to clarify, is the install you're describing on a single computer shared by many users?

Greg,

Yes, the istallation is taking place on a single computer. There will be 3 users:

1) Superuser (that's me)
2) My elder son,
3) My younger son.

Both Client users would like to have their session language in Spanish, although I prefer to have the language in English.

Is that possible?

Thanks for your help!

Yes, you can select the interface language per user at the login screen. To install more interface languages, check out System->Admin->Language Support.
