First of all, you for sure will need the translated front end file for your language that you may find in the language section of OXIDforge. In this example, I am using Spanish. Mark and copy everything that you find under the headline Language file /out/basic/es/lang.php. Make a new file on your computer and name it lang.php. Paste the text copied in #1 and save your file. Copy the content that you find under the headline Transliteration List for URLs on the same OXIDforge page and paste it to the field Characters which are replaced in SEO URLs in your admin panel -> Master Settings -> Core Settings -> tab SEO. (OXID eShop is doing it the old way in URLs: just provide clean and readable latin characters and leaving out the special ones. Imagine that “Geräte” [transl: tools] could become “gerte” [transl: wipe] which might be used in a sexual manner… 🙂 ) On the OXIDforge page, open the flag image you find under the last headline Flag and download it to your computer as es.gif. Copy es.gif to /out/[your_template]/img/lang/ Go to your OXID eShop installation /out/[your_template]/ and make a new directory /es/ for Spanisch. Copy the file lang.php into this new directory. Go to the admin panel of your OXID eShop now and open Master Settings -> Languages. Activate this language, enter “es” to the field Abbreviation and “Espanol” to the field Name. Save your work. Go to Service -> Tools and press the Button Update DB Views now. This is important from version 4.5.0 on, as the language handling is using database views to allow an unlimited number of languages. You are done, mate! If you can’t find the translation of a language that you need on OXIDforge, also for the admin panel, please feel free to contribute your translation on this page, the community will appreciate it! If you have a translated file and have no clue how to use the OXIDforge wiki, please turn to me. In case you translated the front end file, the admin file and the demo data into another language, please feel free to upload this package to OXID eXchange.  

like described in https://marco-steinhaeuser.de/switching-to-ubuntu-part-iii-working-with-virtualbox.html, I couldn’t get USB devices mounted. for permanent mounting do the following: $ /proc/… installed and connected the VPN checkpoint client without problems installed M$ outlook without problems installed iTunes without problems install guest additions after starting your guest system to get full screen support, mouse support, shared folders support. if you need special features like screen sharing, skype on linux 2.1 beta isn’t a good choice. installed Skype w/o problems. after running a while it crashed. googled and finally found a bug in virtual box: http://www.virtualbox.org/ticket/1710 Workaround functions perfectly: Go to the Skype folder in the guest XP machine and right click on the skype.exe Choose Compatibility Tab in options and Set it to Win2000. can ditch the second instance of my dual boot installation now 🙂
