Sorry, I didn't look closely enough, you are only pinging a ip address, not a url, so it is not yet working.BarryK wrote:I am confused. In your previous post you stated that the change to nsswitch.conf did not work. So, what other change did work?James C wrote:Following that link I can successfully ping the nameserver in /etc/resolv.conf .

I changed this later in Puppy-Setup, but it doesn't get permanent. So on every reboot I have to change to UTF-8 again.
Is there something wrong?
Thanks for a hint.
racy 5.2.90 pfix=ram
chosen LANG: de_DE (without utf8)
saved to a new save file called racysave-de_DE.2fs
then reboot
and chosen racysave-de_DE.2fs
# cat /proc/cmdline
video=640x480 root=/dev/sda3 ro vga=normal pdev1=sda3
#
# echo $LANG
de_DE.UTF-8
#
repeated chooselocale (de_DE) several times
My observation:
change to non-UTF-8 does not get permanent
I don´t think this is specific to German.
Other languages, please test: changing to/from utf-8
Hope this will help locating the bug

Thanks. The attached file contains the remaining fixes, you can replace the files in Woof by those in this .tar.gz so that you don't have to open and edit each file individually:BarryK wrote:Ok, I have removed the "Name[es]" entry from rootfs-skeleton/usr/share/applications/Bcrypt-file-encryption.desktop in Woof.vicmz wrote:unable to fix wrong translations in menus
just one example:
the Bcrypt entry should say 'cifrado de archivos' (file encryption), the existing translation says 'encriptado de aplicaciones' (application encryption) -- the word 'encriptar', is so un-Spanish
langpack_es installs the new translations, but existing fuzzy translations remain
I will upload Woof soon.

I sugest that you check with your local university to see if they are mirroring some part of ibiblio, if so it should be easy to get them to add a couple of extra's (puppylinux and quirky) if they are not already doing so. You can also always try M.I.T. or Berkley.Pete22 wrote:At other download sites for puppies: I can get similar sized puppies in about 4 minutes My brother can download them about as fast as he can click his mouse.
It takes more than 20 minutes to download a standard sized puppy from the ibiblio site, no matter how fast our personal connections are.
Would you consider allowing wary/racy to also be hosted at one of these faster download locations?
