If you use GDM (the GNOME graphical display manager, i.e. the GNOME
graphical login screen) it really is that simple. Simply choose your
preferred language for the session from the Languages menu, and then
login. You will also be asked if you'd like to use that language for
future sessions too.

Don't know if Mandrake does use GDM by default. Red Hat does though.
