Hi there!


I only use English for my system, how do I remove all other unused languages so that they don't even show up on languague selection menu under system settings?



Thx!

[Rob van der Does]

LOL, why would you want to delete them? If you never switch languages, you never even see this menu at all........

I know SatKiekerd , so the tiny space doesn't get maxed out on my old dm800 for trying out other useful plugins.

You can remove the not needed overhere - /usr/share/enigma2/po/ and here /usr/share/enigma2/countries/
But after a online update they are back, you can make a script for removing them after update.

Mine looks like this (i only want english and dutch)

cp /usr/share/enigma2/countries/missing.png /media/hdd/backup/restore/po/
cp /usr/share/enigma2/countries/en.png /media/hdd/backup/restore/po/
cp /usr/share/enigma2/countries/nl.png /media/hdd/backup/restore/po/
cp -r /usr/share/enigma2/po/en /media/hdd/backup/restore/po/lang/
cp -r /usr/share/enigma2/po/nl /media/hdd/backup/restore/po/lang/
echo "Removing obsolete Languages"
rm /usr/share/enigma2/countries/*.png
rm -r /usr/share/enigma2/po/*
echo "Restoring NL/EN Languages back"
mv /media/hdd/backup/restore/po/*.png /usr/share/enigma2/countries/
cp -r /media/hdd/backup/restore/po/lang/* /usr/share/enigma2/po/
echo "Cleaning up used files"
rm -r /media/hdd/backup/restore/po/lang/*

Thx so much Happysat for your input!!,

I know the script will come in handy, and I'm definitely giving it a shot, but I wanted all other languages to somehow disappear from that menu, because if they still show up and i accidentally navigate down the language selection menu, the system would green screen on me, until i put 'em back into place...

I can see there is a Language.pyo inside /usr/lib/enigma2/python/Components...but there is no source .Py...can you help out, please!

[radxnl]

opkg install enigma2-src

opkg install enigma2-src

overkill... just get your .py file from git

Thx!, radxnl, atilaks!

I'm no coder but i'm trying to figure it out...is it a matter of just removing "self.addLanguage" sub-entries of those unwanted languages under "class Language"?

Thx so much!

[atilaks]

yes, try it

just make backup of Language.pyo file, in case smth goes wrong.

you can not remove block addlanguage but you can modify it in way similar to this
if os.path.exist(language file path ):
addlanguage

addlanguage

he doesn't want to remove the whole addLanguage function, he simply should remove calls to it...

just remove lines with self.addLanguage("some language",...)
be very careful with indentation

Yes, it works...Thx so much everyone! especially atilaks, mfaraj57

[littlesat]

But what is the advantage to remove them???

But what is the advantage to remove them???

i just gained back almost 3 megs of precious internal flash space on my old dm800 .

[hemertje]

time for an update

[Lukin]

time for an update

I know, I've been thinking a lot about it lately....No DMM crapware anymore, learned my leasson the hard way...but definitely going for the new ones from ET, or maybe even Vu+...(if I ever decide to get a new box, that is)....

[atilaks]

you can also remove some of the wireless kernel modules or e.g. samba if you don't use them... try opkg list-installed

[Lukin]

Thx atilaks...good idea!...,I'd really love to know more about that...i usually stay away from kernel stuff...

What are the ones that are safe to get rid of...anyone can shed some light on that, please?

[hemispherical1]

Yes, there are many things that people can remove, saving MUCH more space than 2-3MB of languages, but one size can't fit all. Users have to figure out for themsleves what they do or don't need. I've a fair amount of extra plugins installed on my box, but removing the stuff I know I personally don't need saves me another 8MB of flash, currently have 16MB free...

df -h
Filesystem				Size	  Used	 Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/root				60.0M	 44.1M	 15.9M	  73%        /

Wireless modules (rt* & their coresponding firmware-* files) and samba (including kernel-module-cifs & kernel-module-smbfs) are mentioned above. In turn their related software can also be removed, enigma2-plugin-systemplugins-wirelesslan, wpa-supplicant, etc... If you don't have a motorized dish, enigma2-plugin-systemplugins-positionersetup, osdpositionsetup, etc... No cable tuner, enigma2-plugin-systemplugins-cablescan, etc..., fastscan not work for your provider, remove it, etc... etc...
