Lupu-515 Beta New Version DEC 18

[jeffy39]

Howdy All,
Tried to add Gnome 'Hearts' with PPM. No missing deps., listed in menu.
At exec, get something like 'failed child exec, doesnt exist'.
Also, using OO.o sfs, no sound on the .PPS files.
Same problem in -237 and -238. Surely would like to get these
working. Any/all help appreciated.

I just checked, we have the older version of jwm-492. Latest revision is 493. I'll dig up the Quirky version which I'm sure has the patches applied. We should test this before I make an embarrassing email to Joe!
Ok, here's latest jwm patched. http://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/linux/dis ... hed-q1.pet

@mick
Let me know what patches applied other than this?

shino..

It has the patriot fullscreen patch, I mistakenly said technosaurus. Does your i18N version include this? I will test it now anyway. Thanks

Cheers

The i18N version has been applied 3, wm-492-fullscreen-patriot.patch, jwm-493-fribidi.patch, jwm-492-i18n.patch.

it is already built in the LupQ-511 and i am enjoying YouTube with fullscreen.
That may be the reason i couldn't understand your claim on the jwm.

There are 2 things I would like to see jwm have.
1st png files for the window decorations _ - X
2nd get rid of the screen swapping by going too far to the right, man I hate that feature, I wish it could be turned off by default and enabled if need be for others who actually find it useful.

Yes I can confirm it is good

Just did the same three tests plus a dvd fullscreen test and it passed

I just installed the lupu binary only and symlinked it back to jwm.

Funny, that is a new feature Joe implemented, you can even see it in the 'to do' list in the sources. It was on the 'to do' list for a long time! I didn't like it at first but now I'm used to it.

I'll never get used to it, I usually have a min of 15 open windows and usually I drag them to areas of the screen, and that's when this new and very annoying feature kicks in and peeves me off.
Usually if I'm sticking to a release for a few days, I version downgrade jwm.

[bigpup]

Woohoo!

Seems to me that Luci is the first Puppy I've used that is able to see:
(a) All 6 partitions on my [USB connected] Flash Drive...
sdc1 is often not displayed.
Plus...
(b) Both of the partitions on my 2 [USB connected] external HDD's.
Can usually see the 1st displayed, but not the 2nd to be powered-on.
Plus of course...
(c) The partitions on both internal HDD's.
All of these are normally displayed.

You need all of that to run a 136MB operating system?

[01micko]

I can't remember who mentioned it but pwireless2 *is* in Puppy Package Manager, under Network. Thanks.

Clicking the clock in jwm does not give a calendar (or anything). Shouldn't it? How? Thanks.

I just tried this, normally it's a pet called "minixcal"... but is that needed when a simple Xdialog calendar works?

BTW, minixcal-1.1.1.pet is in the puppy4 repo if you want to add it to the woof tree, maybe easier, only 4 k pet, plus it will launch Osmo.

Man, I love that feature....... I use it constantly.

Ditto. I guess if I wanted to use off screen parking I would set it up with just one desktop.
Is loading minixcal really all I need to get a working calendar back in JWM?
If so, what is loading the current clock?

[01micko]

If you open ~/.jwmrc-tray you'll see I just replaced minixcal with the Xdialog calendar call. Minixcal is just awol.

Ha Ha, no more its not... not on my system anyway, so now calendar pop-up works in JWM

1. "You need all of that to run a 136MB operating system? Laughing Rolling Eyes"
(a) Multivarious stuff accumulates to fill the space provided!
e.g.
(b) sda and sdb are each 10GB internal HDD's. [I deliberately keep them small/fast]
sda1 holds Win2000Pro on 6GB FAT32.
sda5 holds data files for Windows & progs on 1GB FAT32 [not lost if Windows image backup is restored].
sda6 holds portable Windows progs [can be run by Puppy->WINE] on 3GB FAT32.
sdb2 ext3 partition can hold copies of the 6 Puppies on the Flash Drive.
Only 3 on there right now, including Luci-239 and I'm using that right now to type this.
(c) sdc is an 8GB Flash drive holding 6-off 1.3 GB ext3 partitions, with pupsave+SFS for 1 Puppy on each.
one of the 2 copies of Luci is on sdc3.
(d) sdd1 is a FAT32 partition on an 80GB Maxtor USB connected external HDD, for holding general data files, and backups of sda made using the FREE "Seagate Disk Wizard". [Seagate/Maxtor HDD must be included to function]
(e) sde1 is a 150GB ext3 partition [on a 1TB USB-connected external HDD] used from some Puppy for backup of various partitions.

2. Complicated or what?
I believe in compartmentalisation you see.
If I lose [and restore?] the contents of any one compartment, the others should be reasonably safe/untouched.

I spent all day on ogle gui, Basically I made all new icons from scratch, I converted the code from xpm to png files and added a extra button for the play to the code, because it was reusing the same play icon for moving the cursor right, This way I could make an icon just specifically for ogle gui.
Once I work out or someone else works out the stop button issue, I'll package it up.

I compiled in luci Pdfchain for pdf editing.

PDF Chain is a Graphical User Interface for the PDF Tool Kit, released under the terms of the GNU Public License verion 3.
It includes features designed to handle PDF files in a easy way. Basicaly it can merge, split, add backgrounds or stamps and add attachments. There are some tools for extended needs, too.
The gui is written in GTKmm, a C++ library for GTK.
Remember: PDF Chain is still a alpha version now and comes without any arranty.

Pidgin 2.7.7. I have nls and doc separated, but not going to upload yet, still trying to find straight ftp upload place instead of those 4shared kind places.

Smallest Pidgin I have made 2.56 Mb.
