relative with: Servicemenu Copy to Floppy
Thank you!Last changelog:

- Add languages: norwegian (nb and nn), russian and ukrania.
- Split file in two archives: copy_to_floppy_submenu.desktop and copy_to_floppy_direct.desktop.
Hello! Unfortunately it is not working with KDE 3.4 or above. I wrote a patch and its is OK now. You could replace the "exec=..." line by
Exec=kfmclient copy %U media:/fd0
or, if you'd like to umount
Exec=kfmclient copy %U media:/fd0 ; umount /dev/fd0
It is a usefull tool! Thanks
Don't know which distro, but you need to unpack the archive and move it to either
$HOME/.kde/share/apps/konqueror/servicemenus
or
$KDEDIR/share/apps/konqueror/servicemenus
That's all
im in Mandrake 10.1 Official Edition,
I already copy this to /usr/share/apps/konqueror/servicemenus/
and Copy to Floppy show up in Actions menu at konqueror but when I try to use it this msg appear :
"Unknown Error
plain_io : is a directory
init A : Could not read boot sector
Cannot initialize "A"
Could'nt find the program 'kfmclient copy %U Floppy:/a'
.. then I checked to console command line , kfmclient is available ..
Please,
I am brazilian developer (initial) in Linux but I dont´t speak and write very well english. I read and write more less this language. This (my) translator to english is correct?
X-KDE-Submenu[en]=Copy to Floppy

Obs.: The translator to it_IT (italian) is complete?

Hello,
I need to translate this servicemenu. You can help me add your language down. See the model:
X-KDE-Submenu[en]=Copy to Floppy
X-KDE-Submenu[pt_BR]=Copiar para Drive de Disquete
Name[en]=Copy to Floppy 3 1/2
Name[pt_BR]=Copiar para Disquete de 3 1/2
Observation:
[en]= English language
[pt_BR]= Brazilian language
And your language? Write down please =)
Why not in the Copy To... submenu of the service menu? Now you are only adding more bloat to the menu's we're so desperatly trying to clean up a bit...
Hello! My name is Paulo Zambon and I was born and live in Astorga-Paraná-Brazil. Kurumin Linux is my inspiration to build this servicemenu. About the Kurumin Linux is Debian > Knoppix derivate and customized to users brazilians. Actualy version 3.31 (stable) use Kernel 2.4.25-klg, KDE 3.3.0 and other softwares. The alpha release (version 3) use kernel 2.6.8.1-10-kanotix and KDE 3.3.1. Your developer is Mr. Carlos E. Morimoto of site www.guiadohardware.net
Novell sure has a lot of people helping to improve linux and make it even more user friendly. Or more for the stubbornly stupid however you want to look at it. When it comes to most of the distros that I have used and tried they dont' have the copy to floppy service menu built right in. I think its a great addition! good work

Could you make a version with: "Copy to USB key" see the usb pen on kde-apps for more info. Sincerely yours, Fred.

Hi Paulo, Nice bit of work there. I was wondering if this useful servicemenu can be adapted to work with an internal zip drive (250mb). The Borg Queen
