Mark, Are the locale and Gnome.sfs for version 4 and up?

Reference;
http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewto ... &start=105

I have tried Gnome sfs with locale sfs on Chice Pup yesterday but it only disabled menu without showing Gnome dedktop.

It is not a Gnome desktop look. I meant to try Korean languages or menus with Gnome.

Have you tried Gnome sfs with any other versions? Which version does it work?

Besides the Gnome.sfs, the original language files were tar files.

[gtk+-2.12.1-locale.tar.bz2] 1018.9 KB
[gnome-2.20.3-locale.tar.bz2] 35.8 MB (141.1 MB extracted) "

Do I need gtk+-2.12.1-locale.tar.bz2 or is it included in the locale sfs?

Whenever you find time, please check it out.

Mark, Never mind.

I thought I ddidn't have to follow install instruction because the one you have is sfs.

While reading the post again, I think I shoud follow it.
I will try first.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Installation:

Start with a fresh Dingo, i.e. "No pup_save" ('puppy pfix=ram')
Choose Xorg as X server
Then run these commands:
Code:
addgroup haldaemon
adduser -SDH haldaemon -G haldaemon

Also remove '/root/.gtkrc-2.0' to avoid problems with the gtk theme in Gnome.
Now install [Dingo-Xorg-DRI.pet] (by Kirk)
Copy gnome-2.20.3test02_398.sfs to the same partition where the new pup_save.2fs will be saved. (rename the version number, _398, if needed)
Now reboot and save session.
