Tested the new pman position top-left
The input field is larger now, very good

HTML pages in /usr/share/doc/help/<language-code>/xxx.htm are shown

Because I am a little bit lazy in translating I was searching a solution to get localized pages from the web.

The pages from /root/.packages/PKGS_HOMEPAGES are english only, of course. But there is an easy way to show a localized page from the web instead. Tested example:
python will show http://www.python.org/
I have put a file PKGS_HOMEPAGES into /usr/share/locale/de
content

Code: Select all

python http://wiki.python.de/

Try it for your language please.

apply code in /usr/bin/pman line 290

Code: Select all

#w464 search pkg homepages db...
pPATTERN='^'"${NAME}"' '

# search localized homepages db by L18L
HOMESITE="`grep -i "$pPATTERN" /usr/share/locale/${lng2}/PKGS_HOMEPAGES | head -n 1 | cut -f 2 -d ' '`"
[ "$HOMESITE" = "" ] && HOMESITE="`grep -i "$pPATTERN" /root/.packages/PKGS_HOMEPAGES | head -n 1 | cut -f 2 -d ' '`"

if [ "$SECTION" = "" -a "$HOMESITE" != "" ];then

This solution is better than:
redirecting HTML page in /usr/share/doc/help/de/python.htm which was my first solution.

Note: if python_DOC is installed then the english manpage of python will be displayed. Therefore using _DOC.pet is not recommended for NLS users.

feedback welcome
PS: rox-Filer homepage has just french and italian

/usr/share/doc/help/<language-code>/PKGS_HOMEPAGES also might be a good location for the localized HOMEPAGES

Every time i restart X until i create save file, Puppy insists for that.

Ah... the Puppy asks 3 or 4 times. It shall be refined.

To be fixed at next release. Thanks for reporting that.

You can copy all the files in /etc and /root, but remove the hidden file '/etc/.XLOADED'.

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 suspect the init in initrd of the most recent woof(110223).

http://shino.pos.to/party/bridge.cgi?puppy/wary/test/
Download size is 101MB. It is multilingual but the iso does not contain additional lang_pack.
You can get the additional lang_pack here.

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.

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
