Multilingual frontpage in Drupal 7

Setting up a new D7 multiligual site, I experienced problems with my site config home page settings.
After configuring the site’s languages (english & dutch) and the setting the proper language prefixes,
drupal didn’t want to recognize that there where different fontpages for each language.
Solution:
Go to ‘admin/config/regional/i18n/variable’ and tick this option
| Default front page | The home page displays content from this relative URL. If unsure, specify “node”. |
If you go to ‘admin/config/system/site-information’ now, you will see that in the info below the homepage url,
now there’s marked: ‘This is a multilingual variable.‘
Now you can set you homepage for each language (first browse to your page content in that specific language and than go to the site information).
Here’s some more info:
