Help with install squeakland on kubuntu

I installed Squeak on kubuntu edgy 6.10 using the provided deb on squeaklands website. To install this package kubuntu downloaded and installed squeak-vm from its own repositories. This caused squeak and squeakland items to be put into the menu. Clicking on squeakland opens the program.

However I have two problems. The first is that program is in a language other than english and I can't find the option to change it.
The second is that I can't see the animation here http://www.squeakland.org/plugin/launch.html in firefox or konqueror
Thanks everyone in advance for your help

Do these updated packages work better?

http://impara.de/~jens/ubuntu/

They still undergo testing and haven't been published to
squeakland.org yet.

The problem lies elsewhere:

Really?

http://www.squeakland.org/plugin/launch.html

is fixed, and those newer packages should default to English.

I installed squeakland_3.8-6u_all.deb but it still had the same
problems. I also opened firefox in a terminal to check the plugin but
I got no messages in it. All I got was the "additional plugins are
required to view this page" bar at the top, which I always get.

Which VM package do you have? This appears to be the latest:

http://impara.de/~jens/ubuntu/squeak-vm_3.9.8-2_i386.deb

And where did you find squeakland_3.8-6u_all.deb?

No squeak isn't registered in about:plugins. I typed
sudo /usr/lib/squeak/npsqueakregister
but it had no effect.

To Bert Freudenberg

can you show me the output from firefox if you start it from a terminal?

there is a new image of squeakland in

http://www.impara.de/~jens

/squeakland/squeakland_3.8-6u_all.deb

perhaps it fixes the language problems.

Check if the plugin npsqueak.so exists in any of the following directories (it
will be a symlink).
/usr/lib/mozilla-firefox/plugins/npsqueak.so
/usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/npsqueak.so
/usr/lib/mozilla-snapshot/plugins/npsqueak.so
/usr/lib/firefox/plugins/npsqueak.so

The plugin file is installed from squeak-vm package
in /usr/lib/squeak/<version>/npsqueak.so. The files above should actually
point to this plugin.

In Konqueror, check if one of the paths above figures in Settings->Plugins
search path list and scan it once to pick up the right one.

Hope this helps .. Subbu

Ah. That would explain it. Where is the plugin directory for your
browser located? The npsqueakregister script tries a few known
locations, but apparently it missed yours.

All you need to do is symlink npsqueak.so from /usr/lib/squeak/3.x.y/
to your browser's plugins directory. That's all npsqueakregister
does, in fact. Unfortunately, there is no standard and it should be
updated by the distribution maintainer to find any supported browsers.

Hi,

Bert suggested a fix in the npsqueakregister script
so I repackaged it.

Here are the latest two packages for squeakland + vm for ubuntu.
I build under 6.10 edgy eft so it won't install on earlier releases

http://www.impara.de/~jens/ubuntu/squeakland_3.8-6u_all.deb
http://www.impara.de/~jens/ubuntu/squeak-vm_3.9.8-3_i386.deb

Re: Help with install squeakland on kubuntu

Thank you. The new packages fix the firefox issue perfectly. However the language problem is still there unfortunately.

Re: Help with install squeakland on kubuntu

I've finally found the language option so that's not a problem anymore. Thanks everyone for all their help.

Re: Help with install squeakland on kubuntu

Hi,

If you install a new squeakland version, the new image gets only
installed in the system.
You have a local copy of the image in ~/.npsqueak/SqueakPlugin.image, so
if you want to test the new image you have to remove the old first.

There was also a problem in building the LocalePlugin which is fixed in
the new package:

Hello, Jens -

Thanks for all your help with this. Do we need to change anything to
/with the installers that are on the Squeakland.org server in regards
to this issue?
