And you might need to restart the device for it to take effect.

If you try this, you need to edit the file with a Unix line end aware editor. DO NOT use Windows Notepad. Something like Notepad++ will work.
tried it, no go. guess it' just not possible tried fr_CH, which is what it's supposed to be, but it keeps the french layout. Even tried fr_DE but no change. I wrote to the Kobo support, we'll see what they say...

thanks! yeah, this switches from the Kobo to the Fnac store, but apparently you can't use both at the same time. Oh well
