Translation for '0setup'

November 16, 2012 — BarryK
The '0setup' script is in Woof, but is copied into Puppy when it is built, at /usr/local/petget.
The script downloads a compatible-distros package DB files and converts them to Puppy standard format.

'0setup' gets called from the PPM when a user wants to update the package database. Thus, the user-interface will need international translations.
I have not used the gettext method, instead it is the "SSS" method, which is documented with MoManager documentation.

The strings from 0setup that need to be translated are now in /usr/share/sss/script_strings/script_strings, which can be done via the MoManager or the file can be edited directly.

Note, 'script_strings' is already in existing pups such as Slacko, Wary and Precise. The latest Woof commit adds extra strings to it.

The extra string is just: [code] [_usr_local_petget_0setup] [/code] Right?

"L18L, I don't understand the question. The modified sss file is /usr/share/sss/script_strings/script_strings, downloadable from the Woof repo. You also need to download 0setup, to /usr/local/petget.

"A user has reported success in installing ubuntu to the new Acer chromebook "just had my C7 delivered today, downloaded and ran the ChrUbuntu script from these instructions http://chromeos-cr48.blogspot.co.uk/2012/04/chrubuntu-1204-now-with-double-bits.html install went through fine, rebooted into 12.04 but there was an kernal message shown [ 12.157543] sdhci-pci 0000:02:00.1 Invalid iomem size. You may experience problems. but the desktop loaded, so it was OK.. System details is showing 1.8Gb memory being used which is, i guess, about right :) also says "Graphics Unknown" so i assume ubuntu is not aware of the onboard graphics controller in this Chromebook, but the display looks fine at first glance, i have to test some more"
