I would like to offer the index page of DSL in other languages.  Could we have any volunteers?

I am particularly interested in:
German
French
Italian
Spanish



I'd also like an informational page in:
Chinese
Japanese
Hindi
Arabic
Korean

Hey John,

Can't we use Babelfish as an intermediate translation until intrest in doing the translation gets ginned up?

I know the babelfish translation leaves something to be desired, but I think there's a drop-in javascript you can add t the page that will offer expedient translations, temporarily.

P.S.  Thanks for your kind words on my impending fatherhood.  I've always said it and I still maintain that you and Roberts are good guys.  I'd offer to do the spanish translation, but the only things I remember is "where is the bathroom", "another pitcher of beer, please" and "how old is your daughter?"

Posted by John on Jan. 12 2006,02:03
I am holding off on Babelfish as a backup plan.  I know that machine translations tend to goof up on the meanings.  I figure that something as esoteric as a small Linux distribution should have a human translation.

I know we have regulars here who can read and write in German Italian, and Spanish, and I am pretty sure we have the other languages too.

It sounds like your Spanish is about the same as mine.

Re P.S...
Two more small pieces of advice.  Do some fun stuff with your wife before the baby is born, and try to get a lot of sleep in the last trimester.

John -

Some people might be intimidated to rewrite the whole thing but maybe a babblefish translation as a start might be enough to inspire someone to take on doing corrections?

Just a thought

Ok, here is a quick german Translation of the important parts of the index page. i didn't translate the "DSL Goodies!"-part because i don't think that many german users will order usb drives from the us (shipping prices are horrible!). if there are questions, just ask.

Was ist Damn Small Linux aka DSL ?

DSL ist eine desktoporientiere, aber nur 50 Megabyte große Linuxdistribution.

Damn Small ist so klein und gleichzeitig so flexibel, dass ...

- es vollständig auf eine CD im Visitenkartenformat passt
- es von USB - Speichermedien startet
- man es innerhalb eines anderen Betriebssystems starten kann (ganz richtig, DSL läuft auch unter Windows)
- man es mit auf einer Compact-Flash Speicherkarte installieren kann
- es mit einer herkömmlichen Installation auf der Festplatte in ein vollwertiges Debian-System umgewandelt werden kann
- es schon auf einem 486DX mit nur 16 Megabyte Arbeitsspeicher läuft
- vollständig in die virtuelle Ramdisk des Computers passt (ab 128 Megabyte Arbeitsspeicher)
- es sich unglaublich einfach an die eigenen Bedürfnisse anpassen läßt.

Ursprünglich war DSL nur ein privates Spielzeug bzw. Werkzeug, das zeigen sollte wieviele Desktop-Anwendungen auf einem 50 Megabyte Live-System Platz haben. Aber mit der Zeit wurde aus Damn Small Linux ein echtes Gemeinschaftsprojekt, in das hunderte Stunden Entwicklungszeit gesteckt wurden. Dabei enstanden so knifflige Werkzeuge wie die Installations- und Backupsysteme, die es möglich machten, DSL mit beinahe jedem Speichermedium zu benutzen, vom USB-Gerät bis zur simplen Diskette.

DSL bringt eine (fast) vollständige Desktopumgebung und zahlreiche Programme für die Kommandozeile mit. Bei der Auswahl der enthaltenen Anwedungen wird auf das wichtige Maß von Nutzwert, Geschwindigkeit und Speicherverbrauch geachtet. Außerdem kann Damn Small direkt von der Live-CD als SSH-, FTP- und HTTPD-Server laufen.

DSL enthält:

XMMS (MP3, Audio-CD und MPEG-Video), einen FTP-Client, Dillo (Webbrowser), Netrik (Webbrowser für die Konsole), Firefox, Siag (Tabellenkalkulation), Sylpheed (Email-Client), eine Rechtschreibprüfung (nur US-Englisch), Ted (Textverarbeitung) , drei Texteditoren (Beaver, Vim, und Nano [ein Pico-Klon]), Programme zur Grafikbearbeitung und -betrachtung (Xpaint und xzgv), Xpdf (PDF-Betrachtungsprogramm), emelFM (Dateimanager), Naim (AIM, ICQ, IRC), VNCviewer, Rdesktop, SSH/SCP-Server and Client, DHCP-Client, PPP, PPPoE (ADSL), einen Webserver, Taschenrechner, Druckerunterstützung (generic und GhostScript), NFS, Fluxbox (Fenstermanager), ein Spielepaket, Programme zur Systemüberwachung, etliche Werkzeuge für die Kommandozeile, USB- und PCMCIA-Unterstützung, Unterstüzung für gängige WLAN-Hardware.

Thanks struppi!

German CHECKED

Posted by pr0f3550r on Jan. 12 2006,19:04
Italian index page is here:
< La Potenza del Pinguino in 50 MB >

Notes:
1)Google javascript must be somehow optimised, as you can't imagine european visitors clicking on "Donations for the victims of Hurricane Katrina" or similar <EDIT>: After a few hours some ad start appearing in Italian, so it self-updates or something</EDIT>.
2)I had to degunk a lot of tagsoup
3)Any Italian speakers that think the translation is not good are welcome to submit their own, I don't mind!

"as you can't imagine european visitors clicking on "Donations for the victims of Hurricane Katrina"

i made a donation for the hurricane victims! :p

Posted by pr0f3550r on Jan. 12 2006,22:54
Don't get me wrong, they deserve donations, but the content wouldn't be appropriate for a Google ad frame.
At the end of the day you want to make money from it, not carry a political message. Or not?

Actually, we get our share of USB and CD orders from Germany, and an occasional hardware order.

will work on the spanish one too, though I'm not a native speaker (but I'm fluent enough) so that someone olse can correct it or modify it if needed.

keep up the good work!

Davide (and John), as per PM, your translation is way better.
I leftItaly ages ago, so my Italian is rusty.
Go for it!

DSL es una distribución linux de 50MB muy versátil y orientada a la estación de trabajo.

DSL es lo suficientemente pequeña e inteligente como para:

Arrancar como distribución live desde una business card (LiveCD)
Arrancar desde un memoria USB
Arrancar desde dentro de otro sistema operativo (es decir, puede funcionar *dentro* de Windows)
Funciona muy bien desde una memoria Flash compacta IDE a través de un método que hemos llamado "frugal Install"
Se convierte en un sistema operativo Debian al instalarla en el disco duro.
Es tan ligera como para devolverle la vida a un Pc 486DX con 16Mb de Ram
Funciona enteramente desde la RAM con tan solo 128MB (alucinarás al ver lo rápido que puede funcionar tu ordenador)
Crece segun las necesidades -- DSL es altamente extensible sin necesidad de modificarla
DSL se desarrolló, en origen, como un experimento para ver cuantos programas aplicativos para escritorio pudieran caber dentro un LiveCD de 50MB. En principio esto era algo así como un juego/herramienta personal. Pero al pasar del tiempo creció y se convirtió en un proyecto comunitario con cientos de horas de desarrollo, invertidas en detalles como un sistema de instalación de programas local y remoto completamente automatizado, un sistema de salvación y rescate de los datos personales muy versátil, y que se puede usar con todo tipo de soporte grabable, incluyendo discos duros, floppys o memorias USB.

DSL tiene un escritorio casi completo además de muchos programas que funcionan desde la terminal. Todos los programas han sido escogidos con un balance entre funcionalidad, tamaño y velocidad. Damn Small también tiene la posibilidad de funcionar como un servidor SSH/FTP/HTTPD ya directamente desde el LiveCd. En nuestra tentativa, para ahorrar espacio y tener un escritorio plenamente funcional, hemos creado muchas herramientas de administración, tan rápidas como simples de usar.

XMMS (lector MP3, CD de Música, y MPEG), cliente FTP, navegadores Dillo, Links y FireFox, hoja de cálculo, Sylpheed email, corrector ortográfico (inglés EE.UU), un programa de escritura (FLwriter), tres editores (Beaver, Vim, and Nano [Pico clone]), un cliente para gráfica y visualización de imagenes (Xpaint, y xzgv), Xpdf (visualizador de PDF), emelFM (gestión de archivos), Naim (AIM, ICQ, IRC), VNCviewer, Rdesktop, SSH/SCP servidor y cliente, cliente DHCP, PPP, PPPoE (ADSL), un servidor web, calculadora, soporte para impresoras genéricas y GhostScript, NFS, entorno gráfico Fluxbox, juegos, programas de monitoraje del sistema, un montón de herramientas desde consola, soporte USB y pcmcia, y un limitado soporte para redes inálambricas (wireless).

Yes,

is more commonly used, like PC.

   Qu'est-ce que Damn Small Linux, alias DSL?


   DSL est une mini-distribution Linux de 50 Mo orientée bureau et polyvalente.

   Damn Small est suffisament petite et maline pour faire les choses suivantes:

       * Démarrer sur un MiniCD en tant que distribution Linux vive (LiveCD)
       * Démarrer sur une clef USB
       * Démarrer à l'intérieur d'un système d'exploitation hôte (exactement, elle peut tourner *sous Windows*)
       * Fonctionner correctement à partir d'un lecteur IDE Compact Flash via une méthode que nous appelons "frugal install"
       * Se transformer en un système Debian avec une installation sur disque dur traditionnelle
       * Fonctionner de manière si légère qu'elle peut tourner sur un 486DX avec 16 Mo de RAM
       * Fonctionner entièrement dans la RAM avec seulement 128 Mo (la vitesse de votre ordinateur va vous surprendre!)
       * Grandir de façon modulaire; DSL est hautement extensible sans avoir besoin de la personnaliser

   À l'origine, DSL a été développée comme une expérience pour voir combien d'applications bureau utilisables peuvent tenir sur un CD vif de 50 Mo. C'était au début un simple outil/jouet personnel. Mais au fil du temps, Damn Small Linux a grandi et est devenue un projet communautaire avec des centaines d'heures de développement mises dans des améliorations, parmi lesquelles un système d'installation à distance et local entièrement automatisé et un système de sauvegarde et de restauration très polyvalent qui peut être utilisé avec n'importe quel support inscriptible tels que les disque durs, les disquettes ou les supports USB.

   DSL a un bureau quasiment complet et de nombreux outils en ligne de commande. Toutes les applications sont choisies selon le meilleur équilibre de fonctionnalités, taille et vitesse. Damn Small a également la possibilité de se comporter comme serveur SSH/FTP/HTTPD directement à partir du CD vif. Dans notre quête pour sauver de la place et avoir un bureau entièrement fonctionnel, nous avons fait de nombreux outils graphiques d'administration rapides et faciles à utiliser. Que comporte DSL ?

   XMMS (lecteur MP3, CD audio et MPEG), un client FTP, les navigateurs internet Dillo, links et FireFox, un tableur, le client courriel Sylpheed, la correction orthographique (anglais US), un traitement de texte (FLwriter), trois éditeurs (Beaver, Vim, et Nano), un éditeur et un afficheur de graphiques (Xpaint et xzgv), le lecteur PDF Xpdf, emelFM (gestionnaire de fichiers), Naim (AIM, ICQ, IRC), VNCviwer, Rdesktop, un serveur et un client SSH/SCP, un client DHCP, PPP, PPPoE (ADSL), un serveur web, une calculette, le support d'imprimantes génériques et GhostScript, NFS, le gestionnaire de fenêtres Fluxbox, des jeux, des applications de surveillance système, tout un tas d'outils en ligne de commande, le support de l'USB, du PCMCIA et du sans-fil.

GuillaumeH, thank you for your translation!  I think that posting here is fine.  Let me know if I mess up in the HTML conversion.

Onyarian, thank you for the Spanish revision too!

Freeze, the German translation I have up there now is mostly taken from the first German post in this thread.  I also had to use babelfish to fill in the blanks.  If there is anything you think should be corrected please let me know.

John, there are a few things wich i would change. struppi did good work on that but I can see a problem in converting the German "ß" (its a more sharp pronounciation of "s") into html from a en-keymap. So the solution would be to use diffrent words to discribe what ever.

Further there is the Problem of "ä,ö,ü" the "umlaute" with dotts. For those u can use "ae = ä", "oe = ö" and "ue = ü".

Last thing is who do you want to address? I would guess People who read that Page want some Information first. So I would think they are new to DSL or even Live CD's. Anyone else just grabs the DSL-Image and boots it to see what they get I would think. So there I would make a few changes to.
All in great respect to "struppi" who did a great job.

I will work a little on the txt and post it. If you could use a diffrent format just tell me and I will mail it to you... would be a plesure  :)

¿Qué es DSL, también conocida como "Damn Small Linux" (Linux Condenadamente Diminuto)?

DSL es una distribución de GNU/Linux que en tan solo 50MB es capaz de conseguir eficientemente lo siguiente:

* Arrancar desde un CD de formato tarjeta a un entorno independiente de su disco duro.
* Arrancar desde una memoria USB.
* Arrancar *dentro* de un S.O. anfitrión (por ejemplo, puede arrancarse dentro de Windows).
* Correr sin trabas desde una tarjeta Compact Flash IDE mediante un método que llamamos "instalación frugal".
* Transformarse en una distribución Debian tradicional tras instalarse en un disco duro.
* Mantener funcionando aceptablemente rápido un 486DX con 16MB de RAM.
* Correr completo desde memoria en tan poco como 128MB (¡te asombrarás de lo rápido que es tu ordenador realmente!).
* Crecer modularmente -- DSL es altamente extensible sin necesidad de personalización.

DSL nació como un experimento: ¿cuántas aplicaciones de escritorio cabrían en un CD autoarrancable de 50MB? En un principio era sólo una herramienta/divertimento personal, pero con el tiempo creció hasta convertirse en un proyecto comunitario con cientos de horas de desarrollo en detalles como un sistema local/remoto de instalación de aplicaciones completamente automatizado o un sistema de copia y restauración de seguridad muy versátil que puede emplearse con cualquier medio escribible, sea disco duro, disquete o un dispositivo USB.

DSL posee un entorno de escritorio practicamente completo, junto a muchas utilidades de línea de comandos. Las aplicaciones son elegidas por su mejor balance entre funcionalidad, tamaño y velocidad. DSL puede también directamente desde un CD autoarrancable funcionar como servidor SSH/FTP/HTTPD. En nuestra cruzada por ahorrar espacio y a la vez tener un escritorio completamente funcional, hemos creado varias herramientas administrativas que son rápidas a la par que fáciles de usar.


¿Qué contiene DSL?

XMMS (MP3, CDs de música y videos MPEG), Cliente FTP, Navegadores Dillo, links y FireFox, hoja de cálculo, gestor de correo Sylpheed, corrección ortográfica (de momento inglés), procesador de texto, editores de texto Beaver, Vim y Nano [clon de Pico], edición y visualizado de imágenes (Xpaint y xzgv), Xpdf (Visor de PDFs), emelFM (gestor de archivos), Naim (AIM, ICQ, IRC), VNCviewer, Rdesktop, servidor y cliente de SSH/SCP, cliente DHCP, PPP, PPPoE (ADSL), servidor web, calculadora, soporte de impresora genérica o GhostScript, NFS, manejador de ventanas FluxBox, juegos, herramientas de monitorización del sistema, utilidades de línea de comandos, soporte USB, PCMCIA y parcial inalámbrico.

I put them here:
Traditional Chinese < http://www.2ez2get.com/~sam/dsl/index_tw.html >
Simplified Chinese < http://www.2ez2get.com/~sam/dsl/index_cn.html >

If anyone has questions or concern about the translation, please let me know. I intend to put them over the < http://damnsmalllinux/index_tw.html > and index_cn.html page since I am not sure how long I will maintain the 2ez2get.com website.

Good work guys!

I just wanted to comment on what I have done just as an experiment. I am now sitting in my office listening to classical music from four computers. I'm making this post from one of those computers now. One computer is a year 2000 IBM desktop p-II 256mb ram, one is an HP Pavilion 6330 300mhz 256mb ram and the third is a litle mixed up dinosaur that I'm on right now with pII (Klamath) series 256mb ram, I prefer AMD but I just had to drag these old clunkers in and see what I could do with them. The cool thing about it all is that they are running Damn Small Linux on a network and they have all been running for a day now playing high band width music no lagging and unless we have a power failure I don't expect to see them go down due to OS problems.. I have been watching the progress of this /distro for a couple of years now and so far DSL 2.2 is just one more step in the right direction. It is so cool, runs from cdrom or installs slick as greased lightning. The IBM needed a boot disk to get it started but after that just like every other computer it found all of the hardware logged onto the network and XMMS has been piping in the music of the golden age. Oh yeah the router is a Lonksys 802.11b and the broadband cable modem is a Terayon TJ615. I tell everyone that will listen about Damn Small Linux and encourage them to give it a try, and yes I also encourage them to make a donation. Who am I? Just a linux newby who might be considered a mugwump when it comes to operating systems and I love the lionhearted effort that goes into the production of this little piece of dynomite called Damn Small Linux.

I have the Spanish, German, and Italian pages up so far:
< http://www.damnsmalllinux.org/index_es.html >
< http://www.damnsmalllinux.org/index_it.html >

I'll be getting the Chinese and French pages up soon.  It is definitely a lot easier when I have an actual HTML page to work with.  Strange things happen when cutting and pasting international characters.

I think I fixed most of the rendering problems with the German page. The server was sending out UTF-8 encoding in the header info, but I switched that to charset=ISO-8859-1 which seemed to make the difference.

Thanks everybody.

To John try these:
< de_index.html >
< de_index_with_ae.html >

there are both the one with and the one without dots (ae for example stands for ä). but you definetly have to change them. (it hurts the eye, trust me)

and please make it quick cause its not "really" official... :laugh:

oh, and i took the freedom to change the jpg above aswell.
and trust me that way its really cool... :)

O que é o Damn Small Linux, i. e. DSL?



   O DSL é uma mini distribuição de Linux de 50MB muito versátil e orientada ao desktop.

   O Damn Small é pequeno e esperto o suficiente pra fazer as seguintes coisas:

   *

         Dar boot à partir de um CD/Cartão-de-negócios como uma distribuição live linux (LiveCD)

   *

         Dar boot à partir de um dispositivo USB portátil

   *

         Dar boot à partir de um sistema operacional hospedeiro (isso mesmo, ele pode rodar *dentro* do Windows)

   *

         Roda muito bem à partir de um cartão IDE Flash compacto através de um método que nós chamamos de “instalação frugal”

   *

         Transforma-se em um SO Debian com uma instalação tradicional no disco rígido

   *

         Roda leve o suficiente para utilizar um 486DX com 16MB de Ram

   *

         Roda completamente na Ram com tão pouco quanto 128MB (você se surpreenderá com quão rápido seu computador pode ser!)

   *

         Cresce modularmente – O DSL é altamente extensível sem a necessidade de customização

   O DSL foi originalmente desenvolvido como um experimento para ver quantas aplicações utéis de desktop podem caber em um live CD de 50MB. No começo foi só uma ferramenta/brinquedo pessoal. Mas através do tempo o Damn Small Linux tornou-se um projeto comunitário com centenas de horas de desenvolvimento dispendidas em refinamentos, incluindo um sistema de instalação de aplicações remotas e locais completamente automatizado e um sistema de backup e restauração que pode ser usado com qualquer media sobrescrítivel incluindo um disco rígido, um disquete ou um dispositivo USB.

  1.

         O DSL tem um desktop praticamente completo, e muitas ferramentas de linha de comando. Todos os aplicativos são escolhidos com a melhor combinação de funcionalidade, tamanho e velocidade. O Damn Small também possui a habilidade de agir como um servido SSH/FTP/HTTPD direto de um live CD. Em nossa jornada para economizar espaço e ter um desktop completamente funcional nós fizemos várias ferramentas de administração em GUI as quais são rápidas e, ainda assim, fáceis de usar. O que o DSL tem?

   XMMS (MP3, música de CD, e MPEG), cliente de FTP, browser da web Dillo, browser da web Links, FireFox, planilha, email Sylpheed, correção ortográfica (inglês americano), um processador de textos (FLwriter), três editores (Beaver, Vim, e Nano [clone do Pico]), editores e visualizadores de imagens (Xpaint, e Xzgv), Xpdf (visualizador de PDF), emelFM (gerenciador de arquivos), Naim (AIM, ICQ, IRC), VNCviewer, Rdesktop, servidor e cliente SSH/SCP, cliente DHCP, PPP, PPPoE (ADSL), um servidor da web, calculadora, suporte genérico e Ghostscript á impressão, NFS, gerenciador de janelas Fluxbox, jogos, aplicativos de monitoramento do sistema, um bocado de ferramentas de linha de comando, suporte a USB, suporte pcmcia e algum suporte ao wireless.

   Curioso sobre quem somos nós? Confira a página de contribuidores(inglês).

   Versão atual 2.3, telas capturadas: 1 2
   Versão atual RC: 2.4RC2


   Telas capturadas mais velhas.

   Se você está procurando por algo maior tente o Damn Small Linux Not,
   ...a distribuição que não é Damn Small.
   (por favor, proceda ao forum de usuários para questões técnicas)







   PRESENTINHOS DSL!

   Para manter este projeto vivo e financiado nós vendemos mercadorias que nós achamos que o geek habitual apreciará.

   Você pode querer nos ajudar comprando o DSL em um CD, nós o vendemos em formato completo e mini.

   Outra maravilhosa forma de ajudar o nosso projeto é comprar uma caneta USB Bootável a qual é capaz de dar boot dentro do Windows.

   Você é um geek-de-dispositivos? Confira a DSL Loja de Mini-ITX e Computadores pequenos.
   Além disso, certifique-se de conferir nossa Máquina Damn Small.
