I have finally started translating KDE. That was my wish for a long time. But now I have the time to do it. I want to put Slovenian translation team, into first 20 🙂 ( we’re 27th now). It’s quite easy to translate. First you download a file. Then you put it through SMART. Then you diff the file from SMART with the original file, and for the last part, you go through the file in text editor, to select one of multiple SMART translations and to remove, text added by SMART.
Fish fillets translation
I have got CVS commit acces for Fish fillets. This means that translations could be more up to date.
Fish-fillets
I have again started to translate Fish fillets. This time I plan to finish it. Because it is written in lua I have written a script that converts lua files to *pot files which are normally used for translations. If anyone needs the script I ‘ll send it. It is in PHP and bash.
xmltv grabber
I have Mythtv now and I’m using xmltv_prisma for german programs ( In Slovenia most programs are German. We only have 4 Slovene). And my php script that fetches data from TV3, Gets xmltv from phazer for Discovery channel, National Geographic and Animal planet. And fetches xmltv from vidmar.net for Slo 1 Slo2, Pop TV and Kanal A. And now I have TV guide for all my TV programs.
It would be great if I could get TV guide from Siol’s page, because they have everything.

Long time no post
From my last post a lot of things happened. I have translated update to Frozen bubble. School page was online some times. But then offline again because it isn’t finished yet. I still haven’t found time to learn C++. Webpage for german is finished, school newspaper will be finished soon. Page for English must go through code review and then it wil be online.
Some other very nice things happened to me also and thanks to person who is responsible for them. But those are not computer related.
Frozen bubble 2
This week I made some final fixes to Frozen-bubble translation and today at 19 (UTC+2) frozen bubble was released with my translation. I am quite proud. 🙂 My next translated game will be SuperTux, because it is already translated around 97% I have to only translate the hardest strings.
Frozen bubble
I have finished translating frozen bubble and I have sent it back. I hope I’ll get some screenshots that I could see if translations are right ones.
Frozen bubble translation
I was just browsing around the web when I have found that Frozen bubble is asking for translations. I have sent the mail, and I have already got back mail with pot file. I am currently translating it in slovenian. I hope I’ll finish until 1. 9 because school starts then :S.
Installing Leadteak Winfast 2000 XP in Linux(Gentoo)
I decided that I should buy TV Tuner card. First I have done some googling, which ones are well supported under Linux. I found out that Hauppauge WinTV PVR-150 is good supported and even has a hardware encoder. I decided I should buy it. But then I found out that in Slovenia it is impossible to get it. I googled for more informations about the card and found out, that it can be only used with PVR programs like Mythtv and Freevo and I would like to watch TV with normal programs like, tvtime, kdetv and Xawtv too. So then I googled for different card and found Leadteak Winfast 2000 XP, which can be bought in Slovenia.
I have bought it and now the interesting part starts. First howto install it. Physically was not a problem, and then start of a system. CD to kernel source, I have choosen the right modules, recompiled the kernel and loaded the modules. Then I have started TVtime, First I have to choose which system should Tvtime use. I knew only that Slovenia uses Pal, but then there war at least 4 PAL options. I have chosen one and searched for channels. None of the channels had good picture. I tried with other programs and it was the same. Googled a lot but found nothing. When it was 3 AM I went to bed. In the morning I have brought TV from the living room and connect it to the cable. The picture was equally bad. What a relief, so the TV card must be fine installed. I then brought the PC to Living room to connect it directly to the cable and there the picture was fine. I have found out that here in SLovenia we use PAL-I at least there the frequencies are the same as in the paper we got from the cable provider. But strangely on PAL-N the picture is sometimes better on the same channel. When we moved cable a little the picture was good in my room to, and even the sound is working. Now the only thing left to do is the remote control. Because now only number buttons and Enter works.
I have tried to load lirc module and the problem is it looks for driver bttv for the TV card, but my card uses driver cx88xx, because chips were changed. Maybe even remote will work after some fidling.
