I've found small mistake in pupsaveconfig translation. Posting fixed version.
I have also translated /usr/share/doc/help/C/pupsaveconfig.txt but it isn't detected by pupsaveconfig or pman when I place it in /usr/share/doc/help/ru/pupsaveconfig.txt

I suppose i have got it

It is the busybox version issue.
Some 'grep' command used in the init script pits in the busybox bug.
The busybox version 1.18.2 is required to run the recent init script correctly.
EDIT: busybox new version makes another issue in counting free ram.
Barry uses, in Wary-511, static grep instead of busybox.

I am going to release 502q as the bug fixed.

Hi Shinobar.
Back again.
So far so good.Thanks for your hard work.
Probably has nothing to do with Wary-502q,but i can't set Seamonkey to play sound when a download is finished.
In Lupq-511 i could do that and get used with it .
It's not something so important and probably i am doing something wrong.
Greetings !!!

Added gettext to pupradio and sfsconvert. mo and po-files for russian.

Posted: **Thu 03 Mar 2011, 22:56**

I am using wary-502q-k2.6.32.28.iso

I am able to record and play sound nicely.

Here are some comments:

pschedule should be in the menu

Why did you include ptiming? Shouldn't you have included pclock
by zigbert instead.

Maximum resolution I was offered when first booting up was 800x600
which is barely usable .

I choose English country and English keyboard layout....
but I still had the old problem of the underscore character ( _ ) being
printed on the screen by an equal ( = )

When I switched to French then the proper keyboard layout resulted.

There's a new version of gparted 8 that's just out.
The homepage says it's stable. Playdayz has
made a package

All the download links in the top post (http://shino.pos.to/party/bridge.cgi?) redirect to an empty page.
Is there a trick that I miss or is just (hopefully temporarily) out?

Posted: **Fri 04 Mar 2011, 13:53**

just (hopefully temporarily) out?

same happened to me yesterday
it was temporarily because I am with 502q now

Posted: **Fri 04 Mar 2011, 15:15**

Now the link is fixed.

Note: Sometime it goes dead. I have made the setting so that it shall be fixed in every an hour.
Sorry for your inconvenience.

Bonjour shinobar !
thanks again for those new wary's !
have got a try on both kernel wary-502q:
Till now 502q-k2.6.31.14 runs nice with fr_be@euro locale + lang-pack-fr.0.4-w5.pet (tested on a HP pIV 2.8GHz dual core; and a Fuji-Siemens PIV 2.5GHz)

But using 502q-k2.6.32.28 on a HP pIV 2.8GHz dual core I could not get remastering: there is no dialog box asking which optical drives the live-cd is inserted. Instead there is a dialog box telling that "no cd/dvd" can be found... and the remaster program ends up.
Now only on Fuji-Siemens PIV 2.5GHz with "Intel Corporation" Board "82845G/GL[Brookdale-G]/GE Chipset Integrated Graphics Device"
I could start from live-cd till the locale setup. Upon X server restarting, the display kept being black, even after doing Ctrl-backspace to restart X server .

Seems strange as till now much puppies from 3 series run nice on this Fuji-Siemens.

Cheers
Charlie

Je suis désolé.
Maybe missing the update of /sbin/probedisk2.

Plan of the Wary-503q.

Remove(from Wary-511): didiwiki, gcolor2, gdmap, gfnrename, pbackup, pmetatagger, pstopwatch, ptimer, puppy-podcast-grabber, seamonkey_addon_sqlite_manager, sgtt, pupscan.
Move to extra menu: ptiming, peasyscan, nicoedit, pedit, secure-ssh, e3_utf8, superscan, wakepup2, xclipboard, xconsole, chooselocale, set-hwclock-type
New: pclock(with pschedule on the main manu)

And now, i am considering the Pctorrent to be replaced with Transmission, or simply remove.

As for the updating gparted, i would like to postpone because we are going to finalize the Quickset wary soon.

here are some more infos:
when setting Xorgwizard to get 1024x768x16 with 'intel' X driver (that's the driver which nice drives the 82845G/GL graphic card on other puppies), Xorgwizars tells 'OK for video, OK for card'; aftrwds 'test' does not display anything = black screen; doing ctrl-backspace returns to command line; doing 'xwin' and then I hear the '2 barks' but with a keeping black display.

I tried i810 and i740 drivers without success.
I tried to come back to vesa, but here also got a black screen.

Thanks for your time
Cheers,
Charlie

ps: 1)... never got that since I joined puppy; on this very same PC I tried the wary-511 with k2.6.32.28 without problem.
2) on my HP PIV 2.8GHz with nvidia card, I got a try to change the X driver: intel or i810: in all tests, xorg keeps automatically setting on the 'nv' driver - does not take accout of the manual settings...?!

Hi shinobar,
please don't forget:
let seamonkey start localized (was in m09)
CUPS localized (was in m09)

gtklp_NLS is in repo puppy-wary5
menu entry for gtklp would be nice to have.
Can you add gtklp.mo to all existing lang_packs or should it be done by every language maintainer?

Posted: **Sat 05 Mar 2011, 12:06**

puppyhelp/pman is producing funny results.
Just 2 examples:
Puppy Packetmanager: result
PuppyPDF: result
Yes, I know, if there was one of
1- /usr/share/doc/help/<language-code>/PuppyPDF
2- or /usr/share/doc/PuppyPDF
3- or localized HOMEPAGE for PuppyPDF (see my suggestion HOMESITE localized)
4- or HOMEPAGE for PuppyPDF
that would not have been happened. ( 1- or 3- is our goal

)

edited later:
And I have learned that the translation of the applications in the menus have to be revised:

same name as the original English if possible
and first word has to be unique

Bonjour shinobar !
This is not that so urgent to be fixed ....
Got a try with linuxwacom-0.8.8-10-k2.6.32.28-w5.pet on wary-511-k.2.6.32.28 and the following comment:

Code: Select all

# depmod
