the nautilus-cd-burn window will use the cd-r, dvd-r, etc icon in the background-corner and an special bar at top showing the “burn” button and a bar with the used and free space of the device. n-cd-b must autodetect the media type to calculate the free space. Can be a nice idea too a combobox button to selec the type of burn, audio or data.

How to use “localepurge”

A few users have some problems with app-admin/localepurge so i will xplain how o t use it :)

Actually you can use 2 versions. 0.4 version is considered stable and 0.5 is masked because it add a new feature, the multidir search. Use both by your own risk.

  • Install it :
  • # emerge app-admin/localepurge
  • Configure :
  • You just need to uncomment the features you want to use, and add the locales you want to keep in your system.

    # vi /etc/locale.nopurge
  • Tip : get a list of locales.
  • # less /var/cache/localepurge/localelist
  • Execute localepurge :
  • # localepurge

    You can use a few options in command line:

  • -help,-h : Help!.
  • -version : Version.
  • -debug,-d : Debug.
  • -nocolor,-nc : Disable color output.
  • -verbose,-v : Verbose output (recomended).
  • And some options in the config file:

  • MANDELETE : Purge man pages too.
  • SHOWFREEDSPACE : Show freede space.
  • VERBOSE : Verbose output.
  • NOCOLOR : Disable color output.
  • enjoy :)
