your system's language is german?

Do you have installed the package MozillaFirefox-translations?
What shows 
 echo $LANG

Firefox uses $LANG for setting the language. root on a german system still uses
english for LANG AFAIK. So this is expected.
Comment 2 Armin Mohring 2005-09-24 10:30:18 UTC 
1. package Mozilla/Firefox is installed.
2. echo $LANG gives POSIX.
3. choosen language in YAST is german.
Comment 3 Wolfgang Rosenauer 2005-09-24 12:53:59 UTC 
Then the behaviour is correct. You get almost every application in english if
LANG is set to posix. (I know only about YaST which is still german)
This is the wanted behaviour.
