I do not have access to a pc to test your codes now but they look fine to me.

Stemsee:

After reading your latest report that it didn't work, I spent some time testing your codes using this approach:

1. run fd64 710 English on my pc using a frugal install

2. install yong_th_2016.11.5-fd64710-en-zh-raring-13.1.0.txz (1 of the 4 yong pets for fd64710) - system can display and input Chinese

3. install fd64-7.1.0-zhcn-13.1.0.txz - desktop icons, menus, sub-menus, tooltips are now Chinese

4. install fd64-nls_710.sfs - to add more locales

5. change locales to en_US.UTF-8 or pt_PT.UTF-8

6. run your codes to reverse the miscellaneous Chinese items - all desktop icons, menus, sub-menus and tooltips are now English/Portuguese

I realized that the reverse process is not clean and perfect but all tested items were back to English/Portuguese

Once again thanks for raising the issue because I learned a lot from it.

Hi Icake

Pls STOP it is nonsense if you don't publish and extend an index! This topic is not usuable for normal user!!! Pls go to the Puppy Wiki and enter your stuff in it and create the links and the index needing to work with it without toil :roll: ,,,

This forum is not a collection of knowledge (that is the job from a wiki) but a place to discuss...

Kind regards

Adding Chinese to Puppy: Difficult to Follow Instructions

#414 Post by TorontoBoy »

I am an experience Ubuntu 16.04 user, trying Puppy on an old Dell.

Finding the right Puppy version was easy: I downloaded the iso for Puppy Precise 5.7.1 x486, burned to DVD. It runs well on the old Dell desktop.

Now for Chinese. This post is easy to find, which is good.

The problems I have are:
-It looks like files are stored on Google Drive. Puppy comes with Opera and Google drive will not allow Opera to see the files. It says I need to use another browser. Ok, so using Puppy Package Manager I downloaded Firefox, only Google Drive still will not allow me to see the files. It says I need to upgrade Firefox. I therefore am blind
-I think I found the right files in a post authored by icake on Tue 21 Feb 2017, pp28, but where do I download the actual file? I think I need:
* fcitx_4.2.0-en-zh-precise-12.0.0.pet
* scim_1.4.9-en-zh-precise-12.0.0.pet

Neither of these files are found on the PPM, in any repository. I am stuck.

-It looks like I need another computer to download Chinese packages, then transfer them to my Puppy computer, in order to install the packages?

Today I downloaded Puppy Linux Precise 5.7.1 onto a 10 year old Dell P4 celeron 2.66mhz with 750mb ram, and wish to explain, in simple terms, how to install Chinese input. You will need another computer that has Chinese and a USB drive. I installed the SCIM version and not the FCITX version. I installed the half Chinese version (only Chinese input and display), and not the full version (Chinese OS).

This is the file you need:
scim Chinese input platform:
scim_1.4.9-en-zh-precise-12.0.0.pet (21.6 mb)
icake has stored it on Baidu. You will need a Chinese computer (not your newly installed Puppy) to browse and then download the .pet (extra install module) to the USB drive. Don't bother with the Google docs, as the file is not there.

TorontoBoy,

Thanks for raising the issue:
Don't bother with the Google docs, as the file is not there.

I checked my download link to the Google drive for the Universal Half-Chinese Pets
