I once turned my system to Chinese, now I cannot set it back to English.
I tried to change the order in Language Settings, but it doesn't work.
Chinese is always at the top. Even if I delete the language package of Chinese, it still remains. The menu of the system will return english, but all the softwares as well as the top bar remains in Chinese.
I also tried to reset /etc/default/locale and /etc/environment but it doesn't work.
root@ks356457:~# cat /etc/environment
PATH="/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games"
LANGUAGE="en_US:en_GB:zh_CN:de_DE:en_AU:en_CA:en_NZ:en"

This is a remote server and I use remote desktop via X2GO so I can't set the language before I log in as a local machine, either.
How do I get English back? Thanks a lot.
