Yes, there is a bug. I will investigate this today.

I am confused. In your previous post you stated that the change to nsswitch.conf did not work. So, what other change did work? |
Sorry, I didn't look closely enough, you are only pinging a ip address, not a url, so it is not yet working.

That is strange. This is the relevant code:
| Code: | ping -c 1 www.google.com
if [ $? -ne 0 ];then
INSERT0="<text use-markup=\"true\"><label>\"<b>`gettext \"Currently not connected to the Internet. If you wish to connect later, you can run this Video Upgrade Wizard again via the 'setup' icon on the desktop or the 'Setup' category in the menu. Note, to connect to the Internet, click 'connect' icon on left of desktop.\"`</b>\"</label></text>"
fi |
Can you do this in a terminal:
# ping -c 1 www.google.com
# echo $? |
In terminal.....
| Code: | # ping -c 1 www.google.com
ping: bad address 'www.google.com'
# echo $?
1

May be related or not, in pemasu's latest Exprimo release I've been experiencing wget problems.
http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?p=613599#613599
EDIT:
Just tried to use wget to download Flash (as attempted in the linked Exprimo thread) and it fails in Wary as well.
| Code: | # wget http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/pdc/11.1.102.63/install_flash_player_11_linux.i386.tar.gz

Resolving fpdownload.macromedia.com (fpdownload.macromedia.com)... failed: Temporary failure in name resolution.
wget: unable to resolve host address `fpdownload.macromedia.com'
# |
|
Are you connected to the Internet through a proxy server? |
No proxy servers.....using all default settings.
Just checked in the latest Precise.... no problems. Video Upgrade works correctly where in Wary it tells me I'm not connected to the internet.
Here is from Precise....
| Code: | # ping -c 1 www.google.com
PING www.google.com (74.125.65.103): 56 data bytes
64 bytes from 74.125.65.103: seq=0 ttl=52 time=53.775 ms

# |
And just now from Wary.....
| Code: | # ping -c 1 www.google.com
ping: bad address 'www.google.com'
# echo $?
1
# |
But, if I ping Google using the numeric address from the successful attempts in Precise the ping works in Wary....

You can use the label-substitution option of Xdialog.

Re: Puppy-Setup: change to UTF-8 does not get permanent |

Is there something wrong?
Thanks for a hint. |
Yes, there is something wrong, I have been trying to reproduce this in a similiar way.
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 |
I am not having any problem.
Running as a German user, I used quickcountry (symlink to quicksetup) to untick and tick the UTF-8 checkbox. There was no problem.
The problem may occur if you altered the initrd.gz the first time, to say de_DE-UTF-8, then that will be used at a reboot. QuickCountry/QuickSetup will offer to change the initrd.gz if you change the UTF-8 checkbox.

just one example:

langpack_es installs the new translations, but existing fuzzy translations remain |
Ok, I have removed the "Name[es]" entry from rootfs-skeleton/usr/share/applications/Bcrypt-file-encryption.desktop in Woof.
I will upload Woof soon. |
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:

Fresh frugal install of 5.2.91. All basics working on initial boot.
Only problems are those mentioned earlier .... not really that big of a deal.As long as the PPM and browsers work I guess I can live without Wget.....

Any chance of a faster place to download Wary/Racy. |
|
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?
Pete

I have upgraded to Flashplayer 11.2.202.228 which works reliably on Wary and Racy.
