virtualbox.org

Hi I freshly installed Virtualbox in Antergos based on Arch Linux. But my GUI is not as per my locale i.e. en_GB, and showing some different languages.

Below are the details of my system --

I have attached the screenshot.

I'm not sure why you posted this in "Linux Guests" seeing as the problem you describe, and the screenshots, deal exclusively with the host. Moving the topic now.

I see that the window captions are in English, only the dialog fonts are in Vietnamese, or Thai, or whatever it is. So, I suspect some kind of screwup with system fonts, or the Qt configuration. Perhaps you haven't installed enough Qt font packs. I note also that Arch is not a supported host, so all I can do is refer you to the "Linux manual installation" section of the user manual, section 2.3.

So, I finally able to resolve this. It was Qt font rendering issue.

I performed following steps to resolve this --

1. Remove folder
2. Run in terminal

Thanks for reporting back.
