I have stumble across a strange problem with textmaker in Precise 5.4.x.

The German spell checker rejects all words all words containing one of the German special characters (umlaut ä, ö, ü, etc. and ß), but otherwise seems to operate correctly, even underlining old spellings like "daß" in blue.

This does not occur with all Puppies.

A fuller description of the problem is to be found in the appropriate thread:

@ Barry

It is not my habit, I do not ask others to do the job for me, but since I can not do it alone (and I'm not the only one) ...

I think I begin to be familiar with Puppy, but I'm not good with Woof.
I tried several times to create an iso file (Precise base), but I still get the same result: the boot liveCD gives me error messages.
I tried to get a Woof iso really light (at the main sfs). For this, I wanted to create a zdrv.sfs

My request for the next version of Puppy Precise, would it be possible to offer users/contributors a version with a file zdrv.sfs ? So that we can test its operation.

Sincerely,

GSM modem ZTE WCDMA Technologies MSM MF110/MF627/MF636 problem
in precise 5.4.3 and slacko 5.4 (kernel 3.2.33 )I have tested modem huawei E173 (it worked out of the box ) but encountered modem address detect problem
for modem ZTE MF627. If the E173 modem creates only one /dev/ttyUSB0 serial modem and it is correctly discovered by PGRS MODEM SETUP, the ZTE MF627 modem creates 3 devices
/dev/ttyUSB0 , /dev/ttyUSB1, /dev/ttyUSB2 ( and only the first one is detected and the wrong one by the PGRS MODEM SETUP). in my case the good device was /dev/ttyUSB2.
If I put in 'Serial Modem Device File' /dev/ttyUSB2 , it worked fine. This problem was discussed by ubuntu people too, their opinion was that the right device should be detected
frome where it points the symlink /dev/gsmmodem .... I know that modifying the PGRS MODEM script could generate new bugs but an explicative text for this ZTE modems could help many people
, or at first step only to extend "(detected devices:/dev/ttyUSB0 /dev/ttyS0 )" to include also where it points /dev/gsmmodems too.
It also looks like the gsm modem stoping script not functioning proper, i could not simply close the network (by riht click& Disconect from network won't work), in slacko was easy I could
close the terminal window which remained open by the ppp PAP script on connect.
please send this observation to the maintainer of PGRS MODEM SETUP

Barry,

You're welcome.

Thanks for getting my fix and your additional Pudd improvements into Woof.

Also, thanks for updating the jwmconfig2 .pet a while back.

I guess line 189 of pupcamera should be gettexted.

@Barryk,
Think you saw both of these.
