Hi Mobeus, First off, thanks for posting your code and scripts. Also for the explanation of how the menus get assembled by gnome menus. I wasn't convinced it would make it easier to add a different panel so I tested it with jeyjs lxpanel pet. I took the pet apart and deleted all of the directory fil...

Ahh...

You must be using menu-cache instead of gnome-menus, and a version < 4.0; correct?

second they will understand that menu is too complicated and decide to follow standards like everyone else The sad part of this is that it's much simpler to use a standard xdg menu in puppy than the complicated mess it uses now. All of the menu editors edit the wrong files, fixmenus is way too comp...

This may be of interest for GTK+3 themes https://developer.gnome.org/gtk3/3.1/GtkCssProvider.html#GtkCssProvider-struct certain files will be read when GTK+ is initialized. First, the file $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/gtk-3.0/gtk.css is loaded if it exists. Then, GTK+ tries to load $HOME/.themes/theme-name/gtk-...

Hi Guys, Finally had time to install v1.2 last night. First experience is much better than v1.0. This one boots straight to the desktop with sound and networking, whereas v1.0 required video drivers to be installed to get X working on this old Compaq with on-board radeon 300G. The devx seems OK too....

I've been debating with myself on whether not to even mention this, because I'm not sure this isn't a firmware or hardware problem. But since there was a similar report on the Fatdog 6.20 beta thread, well here you go, just in case it's relevant. Once every 6 or so cold boots I fail to get a desktop...

You know, it's kind of funny. In an odd sort of way. I installed quite a few apps with gslapt and slapt-get and even compiled a couple from source and built a couple with slack.builds. The lib64 problem didn't show up until I tried to build a new lxpanel.

Go figure.

I checked both isos at slackbones.org & smokey01.com
Both have the same MD5 as mine and a visual check of the contents shows the same issue.

Yeah, that's why I wonder if it's my file here. Here's my MD5 I'll download again and double check it. Will report back.

Q5sys or Jamesbond My /usr/lib64 in the sb64_devx.sfs is not correct. There are many directories that should not exist, from /libasound.la to /libz.a. The corresponding *.la & *.a files are inside of these directories instead of /lib64. It kind of makes compiling anything a wee bit difficult. Is...

As in?

Potentially, if not already, the best bare bones Puppy ever

@jamesbond Hey, no problem. This is a prototype , right? A couple more questions, if you don’t mind; I noticed that pmount from Fatdog is included, even though there is no mention of it that I have seen. Are there any other Puppy/Fatdog specific utilities in there like resize-save-file etc.? Lastly,...

Q5sys This is a significant contribution to the Puppy community to say the least. Slackbones is impressive. I was surprised by the 309 mb download until I saw that it includes 200 mb of 'extras' like the kernel source and devx along with the other add-ons. As it seems to have similarities to Fatdog ...

Would it be possible for you to add a waitdev boot param to Lxpup?

inoxidabile I think you will find that this is a hardware/kernel issue related to timing as suggested earlier. Several distros like FatDog have a wait boot parameter to allow the kernel time to discover attached devices like your usb/cd. One linux kernel param from the linux kernel documentation tha...

Did you access the router and add the desktop as a new wifi client?

Sorry if this is too obvious, but I often get bitten by the basics.

It's ready to use as it is. Just download sqlitestudio to /root/my-applications/bin, open a terminal and run to make it executable.

@jamesbond

The bugfix pet works here at home. Will test it further on the new machines at work but I don't expect any problems.

I appreciate the instant fix. A person couldn't ask for anything better.

@rcrsn51 Looking = Mounted the partitions & looked at the partition contents with Rox. That's all. Didn't open a single file. On the other machine I ran gparted and looked at the disk layout. Did not make any changes. Basically all I was doing was making sure Fatdog would boot to a desktop on th...
