PuppyLinux4.00 Chinese support package

Article Title: PuppyLinux4.00 Chinese support package. Linux is a technology channel of the IT lab in China. Includes basic categories such as desktop applications, Linux system management, kernel research, embedded systems, and open source.

Puppy Linux 4.00 is smaller than MB, but it comes with a large number of scanning instruments, printers, digital camera drivers, and music recording/editing/conversion software. Puppy Linux 4.00 even contains a complete office environment. Puppy can run on almost all hardware.

Indeed, being small is the biggest feature of Puppy Linux. The entire Puppy Linux can be loaded in the memory. This means that all applications can be started in a twinkling of an eye. I have published many messages about Puppy Linux 4.00. A group of friends who experience Puppy Linux 4.00 have been asking me about the Chinese support for Puppy Linux 4.00, fortunately, a Chinese support package provided by a friend of the Puppy Chinese community named "laborer" can solve this problem.

Chinese_pack-0.4
This package is adapted from the Chinese package made by ly2101. Its functions include:

Support locale for zh_CN.UTF-8;
Chinese Input fcitx-3.5-070713
Supports Chinese virtual terminals rxvt-unicode
Pmount supports Chinese cd and ntfs/fat partitions
Pmount supports customizing mount points through fstab
Fixed the problem where geany cannot input Chinese characters and the new files cannot be saved after Chinese characters are input.
Fixed the problem that the title bar of the jwm menu and window cannot display Chinese characters.
Fixed the problem that didiwiki cannot create a page.

Download from here

Note: If you are using the old version of chinese_pack, uninstall the old version before installing the new version. (uninstall the version by clicking menu> setup> puppy package manager. Then, click chinese_pack, select remove ). If you have installed chinese_pack_extra, you do not need to uninstall chinese_pack_extra. You only need to uninstall/install chinese_pack.

Chinese_pack_extra-0.2
This installation package provides some additional Chinese fonts and patches to make the system better support Chinese. Its main functions include:

Added fcitx's five input methods and warehouse receiving methods.
Install the compiled esegment view downloaded from svn (the system automatically presses the page-down key to segment fault)
Install the ar pl Uming CN and Wenquanyi Bitmap Song Fonts
Chinese PDF file browsing supported
You can enter Chinese characters in the new Abiword file.
Set locale to gbk (not recommended)

Download from here

NOTE: If chinese_pack is not installed, it will not be effective after it is installed.

Initrd patch 0.1
Partitions that store pup_xxx.sfs, pup_save.2fs, and other files are mounted at the startup stage (you can see in/mnt/home ). By default, if the partition is in the FAT format, all Chinese file names in the partition will be displayed ?????, The pmount patch in chinese_pack is useless. If you encounter such a situation, you can try this patch. Overwrite initrd.gz in the original fatarea with a volume, and then restart.

Download from here

Note: Due to limited conditions, I only tested the FAT partition where pup_xxx.sfs is stored on the USB flash disk. Do not use this patch unless necessary. In addition, this patch is only applicable to FAT partitions currently, because NTFS may not have Chinese garbled characters, so I have not made any changes to NTFS.

Thanks
