Description Daniel Mustieles 2011-02-16 09:06:02 UTC 
There are two strings in gnome-control.center.po I'm not sure how to translate them:

#: ../panels/info/cc-info-panel.c:782
#| msgid "Callback"
msgid "Fallback"

#: ../panels/info/info.ui.h:1
msgid "Always use fallback:"

Are this strings about an I/O sound device?

Many thanks
Comment 1 André Klapper 2011-02-16 12:40:06 UTC 
Fallback mode: In this case, if the hardware is not able to run GNOME 3 and gnome-shell, the fallback mode will be the classical gnome-panel known from GNOME 2. Does that make it clearer?
Comment 2 Daniel Mustieles 2011-02-16 14:04:44 UTC 
Would be possible to change this strings?

I suggest:

"Fallback mode"
"Always use fallback mode"

Maybe this would help to clarify that there is a "normal mode" and a "fallback mode"

Thanks!

Added translator comments for the "Standard" and "Fallback" strings.
Please reopen if those aren't good enough.
Comment 5 Daniel Mustieles 2011-02-18 10:20:30 UTC 
Could you please attach a screenshot where these strings are used? We are still not sure how to translate them :(

Marking this as fixed, you hopefully managed to translate them.
