Vasileios,
Your account settings should override the site default language. The only purpose that I'm aware of the language weights serving is for display of language items. For example they change the order the language links are displayed in the links at the bottom of a node.
A couple of considerations: 1. Of course you have to be logged in for your account settings to be in effect. 2. There's a difference between interface and content language. You are talking about interface, like what language the admin screens appear in, right? 3. One thing that might be happening is that there is basically nothing translated into Greek. Whenever the string is not found in your preferred language, you are given the English, so Drupal might be trying to give you Greek but you are getting mainly English for this reason.
What language is your browser set to (what does it tell the webserver?)
Regards, Fletch

Hi,
In Drupal 6.x, I added a second language (Greek) for the interface. In the admin settings, I set the site default language to Greek. In my account's settings, I set the default language to English, having lower weight than the Greek language. The problem is: Whatever preferred language I set in my account's settings, the site's default language always overrides it. Shouldn't the opposite stand?
Thanks.
