Description mrudolf 2003-04-25 07:57:59 UTC
Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.1.1a)
Installed from:    Compiled From Sources
OS:          Linux

Translated strings used in some places of kcmlilo-generated lilo.conf.
Some examples include vga settings, where translated 'default' string is used.
Comment 1 Marco Spreafico 2004-04-30 16:11:38 UTC
In my System, with kde 3.2.2, language Italian, I have the same problem but it also changes :

vga=0x301

 with 

vga="predefinit" 

( the italian version of "normal" )

Since vga=769 seems to run properly, i think the exadecimal numbers (normally accepted by Lilo) are not validated.

have the patches in comment #2 been applied in SVN? Does this bug still happen in KDE 4.0.1?
Comment 4 Albert Astals Cid 2008-08-21 22:46:34 UTC
No the patches have not been applied, and they don't fix the problem completely either, because currently it lets you translate "VGA 640x480, 256 colors (769)" and then does some QString::find, QString::mid, etc to look for the (769), for example assuming it's at the end of the string. As a easy solution i've removed translations altogether as requested from a translation team leader.

If someone wants to fix it (that is having it working and translated) he should use indexes rather than matching the text of the combobox.
