Hi Alex, I am sure everyone is getting this "warning" message on their consoles. Most people are probably running headless or have jivelite loaded so they don't see the warning. It is just a warning I haven't seen a problem. I would not worry about it if I was you, but if you would like to proceed see my further comments. > Meanwhile I managed to find a configuration interface related to the > issue - >beta>extras>boot codes > http://picoreplayer/cgi-bin/xtras_bootcodes.cgi > > there I can find the property LANG with the following > description: > Use the preferred locale > <lang=en> > You need to generate your preferred locale using the getlocale.tcz > extension. > Default: C locale is used (US English, ASCII) Remember, the bootcodes web page is "beta".

Downloading from other repositories is a manual process. The getlocale extension also has 3 or 4 dependencies... that may or may not be available. Downloading from other repositories is a manual process.

This warning is only for piCorePlayer's with LMS installed so you should only see the message on one RPi. > Folks, please feedback on your cases, if your setup has no such warnings > and... what is your locales? > If you ssh into your piCorePlayer and type the command "locale" what is > output? See Tiny Core forum for more information. Warning: There are lots of versions of Tiny Core and not all extensions are available. We usually use the latest piCore, often a beta or release candidate, so by definition they have the fewest number of extensions available. regards Greg ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Greg Erskine's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=7403 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=105018 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
