sfs mounting order

#41 Post by shinobar »

L18L wrote:have startet wary500j04 with xvesa, changed only language.
loading wary_devx_500.sfs after bootup disabled X totally.
xorgwizard xorg and xvesa failed.
Confirmed.
It is because the devx has some file conflicting with the main sfs.
wary500j04 mounts the main sfs at the lowest level and the devx over it. This is the important change of j03 --> j04.

One solution is that we prepare our own devx eliminating the conflict files.
But i think we may be better to revert the initrd.gz to the original.

Thanks L18L for reporting the issue.

The Simple Network Wizard(SNS) is removed in wary-500j04.
The reason is simply it does not work for me.
So, the Simple Network Wizard works for me in Lupu 5.2 and in Barrys Wary 5 but not the one in Wary 5jp04. No success getting a connection. Uups.

I'm very interested in a NLS-Wary 5!!!

Thanks, shinobar,
mave

pmusic

#43 Post by don570 »

I wouldn't remove pmusic from the ISO.
It has so many features, such as burning a playlist
or converting tracks to mp3. I can leave pmusic playing
in the background all day long.

I even made a simple countdown timer out pmusic.

Did you install ftp://ibiblio.org/pub/linux/distributio ... pq-0.2.pet ?
Not very actual, but a good start.
@mave: You are invited to help improve it.

Yes...

For L18L in german:

Gewiß doch. Muss mal meine einstigen (4.x/5.1) Ansätze einzudeutschen wieder hervor holen und vielleicht schaffe ich es auch, die zur Verfügung zu stellen... :wink: Mal schauen, ob Wary 5 von shinobar nicht auch gleich in deutsch hochfahren (Desktop) kann. Der Rest dürfte sich ja ähnlich wie bei shinobars Local-Modulen verhalten.

Gruss

Cancel button in pupsaveconfig

#48 Post by rodin.s »

'Cancel' should be replaced with 'Ok'.
above message is not in .po
Maybe that line is for English-speaking people.

version 4 bug

#52 Post by don570 »

When I tested version 4 wary-500j04.iso
I noticed a strange bug. mtPaint wasn't able to
load SVG format files.

For example try to open a SVG file located in
/root/puppy-reference/vector-images/

mtPaint just gave a warning message that it
couldn't open the file.

According to the mtpaint documentation,
librsvg is needed to open svg files.

wary-500j04.iso observations

#53 Post by don570 »

wary-500j04.iso observations:

When I first booted up with a frugal install ,
I tried the option pfix=nox for something different to test.

I chose English at the console but first run app was entirely
in Japanese and desk icons had Japanese labels.
This is not acceptable to an English user.

I chose 'English' with first run app , then there was a black screen
(with no warning) .. It remained for a long time, so I clicked and
the screen came back. Icons now had English labels.
Pupsaveconfig now launched and it was in English. Good!!

The Dialog was in the error file.
A small message on the screen would have been nicer.

vesa test of version4

#55 Post by don570 »

I did a vesa test of version4.
I chose English but this time I chose the Japanese keyboard
which is an easy mistake to make for an inexperienced user
because it is the default choice.

The warning screen 'Screen may turn black' was now much
better.

I discovered that the underscore character has now changed position.
The underscore character has become the equal sign.
This makes using pupsaveconfig harder to use.(see photo).

Also pressing the tilde key now brings up the Japanese character
insertion method SCIM.

Making English the default keyboard layout would solve this
problem.

This has convinced me that English users need a special opening screen
that is more user friendly for them.

But this if for Japanese people :shock:

I think it's best to let shinobar carry on with a Japanese focused Wary, and later he will surely make his improvements made in this version available to be used in others. I think its enough at the moment to let users find their way into their language from Japanese.

Then once they've done that, they can test and give feedback on how to make localisation better for ALL users, not only English speaking users.

Cancel button in pupsaveconfig

rodin.s wrote:

definitely not.
see attached screenshot showing pupsaveconfig in 3 languages.
OK button works, of course and the debug button is not needed in release version.

Why was I posting this issue?
The correction has to be done in script then new .pot file etc...

You can merge your old po file to the new like so:

Code: Select all

msgmerge old.po new.po -o - > newest.po
add the changes, rename po file, msgfmt and test.

Because of this I did yet not upload my translated pupsaveconfig.po.

Yes it is, but 'don´t hurry be wary'
pupsaveconfig is the most essential script of any NLS_puppy IMHO (and your first use of gettext if I remember well).

Cancel button in pupsaveconfig

#59 Post by rodin.s »

Well, it's easy to fix. Need to add one gettext line and change 'Cancel' to 'OK'. I could do it later today. I use poedit and po-file will be updated from new pot-file.

I see, get a multi-lingual puppy out there, and when all the bugs are fixed, make a perfect Wary just for Japanese people, huh? ;)
