Bulgarian German Dictionary
Today I tried Holux Slim 236 GPS receiver device working over
bluetooth. I was able to connect it to Ubuntu 7.10 using a gentoo
howto. Launching xgps showed a sort of radar circle with
satellites. I tried to use gpsdrive to test it, but unfortunately I
figured out gpsdrive has only maps for 3 countries Germany US and
something. I searched also for some other solutions but haven't
found anything which can be used as a Linux native, luckily Route
66 ran fine with WINE. Tomorrow We'll go to the Vali's computer
shop to test if the device is running smoothly. I should also
mention The Lord's grace which keeps me going on! Blessed, Blessed,
Blessed is our Lord! Yesterday we went to TechnoPolice and bought a
USB Bluetooth dongle. Luckily the divice works fine. Tomorrow will
see if the Route 66 program and Linux would work together. It's a
cool time because I learn a lot of new things. BTW the Toshiba
Laptop a model L40 G14 has been at home on Saturday morning. I
really enjoyed playing with it. It would be great if someday I can
afford one :). Servers keep runnig well thanks to God. I started
searching a Bulgarian German Dictionary for Linux but I haven't
found any looks that there isn't still available. This is a big
Hole in Bulgarian FreeSoftware env somebody has to fill it creating
a German Dictionary. In the meantime I tried a bunch of Windows
Bulgarian/German Dictionaries from download.bg. Gaberoff Koral
FreeGerman dictionary has a problem with the Bulgarian words
encodings. After that I tried BigDic which seems to work pretty
well with wine (keep in mind that wine has to be ran like xport
LANG=bg_BG.CP1251; wine proggie.exe ) or you'll see a lot of
monkeys instead of Bulgarian symbols. BigDic supports also
Bulgarian -> French. and English -> Bulgarian. All this makes
it a pretty neat app. unfortunately BigDic is a 15 Trial. I thinked
a bit about creating an German -> Bulgarian dictionary for
Linux. Everything I need for this is a database with words in
German plaintext, and a database in Bulgarian ( probably some of
the Freeware dictionaries have). I have to dig on the topic more if
I have more time. Did I mentioned I started learning Dutch? It
sounds very "Hrr". :). Btw today I had to open 2 cd iso files For
Route 66, but I was lazy and googled for a "gui program iso linux".
What I found is AcetoneISO, the program seems to do a good job, the
only downfall is it's a kde app! Also there is a gtk unofficial
port dedicated to users. The home site of the app is
http://www.acetoneteam.org/acetoneiso-gnome.html . The project
Manager Nikolina called today and said she has a problem with her
mail client ( Mozilla Thunderbird ). I hate to hear about mail
server / client problems. I asked her did they tried to reinstall
the program. She said "Well No, but we have tried adding more
Memory, Bobb thought it's a lack of memory that causes the problem.
After we have put more RAM still the problem remains. :)" Later
after Thunderbird reinstall the problem was solved. Blessings in
the Name of The Father, The Son and The Holy Spirit!
