/usr/local/Apps/ROX-Filer/Options.xml is opened in geany.
I have no idea how to proceed
Quote: | Edit `ROX-Filer/Options.xml' so that your language is listed, restart the filer and select it from the Options box (see the Translations section). | quoted from
http://rox.sourceforge.net/Manual/Manual/Manual.html#i18n
I have rox.mo available.
Have tried it
copied into
/usr/local/Apps/ROX-Filer/Messages/de/LC_MESSAGE
moved to
/usr/local/Apps/ROX-Filer/Messages/de.mo
and
/usr/local/Apps/ROX-Filer/Messages/de.gmo
without success.
I think all (I have checked some) translations for this Options.xml are in the mo file.

Did updates from 5.2.2.6 to 5.2.2.3 on three machines. Every time german localization of desktop-icons falled back to english (menu entries okay).
Can't see why...

I just did a test. Running 5.2.2.7, I changed to de_DE, then edited /etc/DISTRO_SPECS and changed the version back to 5.2.2.6, then rebooted.
After reboot, desktop icons are still 'de'.
Well, 5.2.2.6 and 5.2.2.3 are alpha releases, there must have been something odd in them that upset the version upgrade of the save-file.
Oh yes, there was, the SSS translation method changed.
Now that the SSS stuff has settled down, upgrading of save-file should be ok. |
Ah, the falling-back-to-English problem occurs when you change the SFS layers, such as loading the 'devx' SFS.
The problem is in /etc/rc.d/rc.update and has now been fixed.

Samba for wary/racy
With the Samba Simple Setup gui
samba_full-3.5.12-wary-racy.pet 36M
It's the full enchilada with docs and dev. It's still large split so I left it all in... libs and bins are stripped.
Code: | ./configure --prefix=/usr --enable-swat --enable-cups --localstatedir=/var --sysconfdir=/etc --with-statedir=/var/locks --with-configdir=/etc/samba |
It would need inetd server for SWAT functionality. I didn't compile that.
3.6X wont compile due to older glibc, but this is as of Oct 2011, so recent enough.

I clicked on the install icon and used the sfs downloader, I used
ftp.nluug.nl repo to download the sfs files and it worked well, fast.
On my full install there was an error message that the sfs was not
found or was the wrong type but they were downloaded to /mnt/home. I
installed Shinobar's sfs_load-1.3.pet and used it to load the sfs
files, it worked great.
EDIT: I've been using this for a few hours now and no problems, it's working well, and fast.

console font again Subject description: xorgwizard |
|
xorgwizard running in console seems missing the new console font .
I have noticed this because ö and ü had no correct display in dialogs.
prepending 1 line before line 335
zcat /lib/consolefonts/LatGrkCyr-8x16.psfu.gz | loadfont #120227
#do this code block if X is running...
and before 1570
zcat /lib/consolefonts/LatGrkCyr-8x16.psfu.gz | loadfont #120227
dialog --no-collapse --title "$(gettext 'Xorg Video Wizard')" --yes-label "$(gettext 'FINISHED')" --no-label "$(gettext 'Tweak')" --yesno "$(gettext 'Report on X test:')
`eval_gettext \"Resolution: \\\${XTEST}x\\\${YTEST} pixels\"`
and ö was correct !
console font has to be (re)loaded independent of locale changing ?!
Some ö´s in xorgwizard:
# pwd
/usr/share/locale/de/LC_MESSAGES
# msgunfmt xorgwizard.mo | grep lö
msgstr "Es ist möglich, Bildschrmauflösungen zu ändern, ohne X zu verlassen:"
msgstr "MEHR: weitere Bildschirmauflösungen anzeigen..."
msgstr "Ändern der Auflösung"
msgstr "Auflösung: ${XTEST}x${YTEST} pixels"
#
The last one is displayed as Auflölsung. Very strange.
Of course, this loadfont hack is just a hack for now...
Test yourself, lang_pack_de attached
-------------------------------------
edited concerning usability:
in dialog the buttons are always visible now so there is no more need for text like
TAB TAB ENTER to choose this or that...
Maybe just 1 new hint:
Use PAGE DOWN key to see entire text...

Thanks to new forum member LaRioja who has translated ROX-Filer from latest source
http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=76281
I have used it in racy5228
Now there is no need for momanager to display:
XML files without de translation:
/usr/local/apps/ROX-Filer/Options.xml
and
Binary executables that do not have a mo file:
/usr/local/apps/ROX-Filer/ROX-Filer
because this is translated by
/usr/local/apps/ROX-Filer/Messages/de/LC_MESSAGES/ROX-Filer.mo
if ROX-Filer.pot is in /usr/share/doc/nls/ momanager can handle this I think.

Barry,
Back in 2010, forum member "Wheres One" ran into a problem installing to partition 1. Looking into the matter, he kept careful notes and pretty much solved the problem himself. I stepped in at the last minute to suggest what might need to be changed in /usr/sbin/puppyinstaller.
His problem occurred after he created partition 10, and he correctly determined that puppyinstaller did not like two-digit partition numbers.
Looking at the code, I noticed three places where $DRVMSG was searched with grep for the destination partition ($DESTPART). You can guess what comes next . . . Yes, grepping for "sda1" matched "sda10".
I suggested adding a colon in each of those lines to change "$DESTPART" to "$DESTPART:". This worked for him.
Looking at the code today, I see a couple of other lines where there might be a problem. In one line the output of mount and in the other the output of ps -e is being searched. So "/dev/$DESTPART" probably needs to be changed to "/dev/$DESTPART ".
In the current version in fossil/wolf2 (checked-in 2012-02-02 10:04:42), the lines that I propose adding colons to are: 705, 706, 712, and the lines where I propose adding spaces are: 1145, 1149.
But I will be the first to admit that this script makes my head spin. For instance, I think that the destination partition in $DRVMSG is always followed by a colon, but I'm not entirely sure. So I am hoping that the author will know best if my proposed changes make sense.
I have not tested this because I don't want to change my partition 1. I do know that the changes I suggested for adding the three colons worked for Wheres One in 2010. The other two changes are totally untested.
Original bug report from Wheres One:

Subject description: X and/or OpenGL settings change to another between pristine and frugal state |
|
Hi,
anew thanks for your continuus quest with this racy !
That's nice to have an embedded OpenGL !
But ....
Here on a pentium IV with 82845G brookdale video chip:
the X and/or OpenGL settings defined on the pristine state change to another (-->different and maybe downgraded) settings when the corresponding pupsave file is created.
No new software nor libs were added.
and...
question: I had like to know how to keep the same settings as upon the pristine boot?
Some more details:
1. Booting pristine (pfix=ram) + restarting Xorgwizard to «Choose» the Intel driver and 1280x1024x24 resolution gives the following reports:

Scrolling is inhabitually slow (for instance scrolling any text file in geany);
looking at xorg.conf: commenting Screen 1 related lines (vesa driver) does not change anything in the X behaviour.

Scrolling for instance any text file in geany is now at habitual speed;.
looking at xorg.conf: only one screen now.
Thanks for any answer.
