ROX-filer
The problem with mounting drives looks like what radky2 reported here: https://github.com/puppylinux-woof-CE/w ... -441514667

Re: ROX-filer
I made similar experiences when trying to open a partition by drive icon on the desktop.woodenshoe-wi wrote:The problem with mounting drives looks like what radky2 reported here: https://github.com/puppylinux-woof-CE/w ... -441514667

But I suspected it being caused by my new but very ugly cheap mouse.
On the other hand, I like the new Rox filer definitely, so it's worth to sort out and fix the bug (if it is any), to have this version of Rox filer default in next Puppies.

There could be two different problems being discussed here.
The problem with mounting partitions should now be, or is being fixed in woof-CE.
The problem "where clicks aren't registered" might be something I just noticed now that when using small icons there is a gap between the icon and name where clicking has no effect. I see the same problem with the rox_old.pet but the latest jun7 version doesn't seem to have the problem and does have the copy/paste functionality.

Gimp sucks for a simple graphics image editor.

The things they do not tell you, are usually the clue to solving the problem.

I was talking about clicking a drive icon of a drive which is already mounted, but it didn't open a window when clicking the icon. Noticed this in 7.9.6.

does this older rox fix it for you? (note root warning hasn't been removed)

How can I tell if I am actually now using this Rox and not the original?

some good news.
I've got Bluetooth working pretty much. i can tether to my phone's internet connection, and have sound streaming to a speaker, from deadbeef, mpv and browsers.
just got to think on how to implement it... it'll probably be pretty clunky

About the problem with the desktop icons and Rox when mounting and unmounting a drive partition.
Here is an issue about it in Woof-CE on Github.
https://github.com/puppylinux-woof-CE/w ... ssues/1240
The issue is closed, so there is suppose to be a fix for this.

An issue.
if /usr/local/bin/defaultconnect contains the line:this activates a bug in the current /etc/rc.d/rc.shutdown file, and bionicpup64 might not shutdown cleanly.
if /usr/local/bin/defaultconnect contains some other line, e.g.:then the bug will not be activated.
The bug can be avoided by not setting any of the Network setup utilites as the default.
You are most likely to do this when prompted after the successful setup of a wifi connection.
if your /usr/local/bin/defaultconnect file is already activating the bug, you can safely edit it to replace the offending line with the safe line, per above.
Note1: If you are not running with a "pfix=fsckp,fsck" boot parameter, you would probably not see any evidence of the bug being activated.
Note2: I have already raised this as a woof-ce issue.

gyro,
Thank you for calling attention to the shutdown bug. I have responded in woofCE and offered a fix. The simple change anyone can make to file /etc/rc.d/rc.shutdown: replace line 139 with:

@ 666philb - bluetooth
Hello 666philbsome good news.
I've got Bluetooth working pretty much
Very good news indeed
! On my side I continued the tests and investigations to make the connection with my phone and my hi fi system work without success. I must say that I proceed in a very empirical way without really understanding the why of the how, I don't have the knowledge to do that. So I can't wait to get your lighting to make this damn Bluetooth work.Yours sincerely . petihar.
Re: Problem Starting X as non-root user BionicPup64_7.9.7
hi TTFOSS,TTFOSS wrote: It would be great if you could help solve this problem.
I am certainly willing to test any solution that you can get to work.
If I am not able to run X as a non-root user then I will keep looking for another system.
I have no problems running X with either FatDog64 7.2.1 or AntiX64 17.2 Full as a non-root user on the test machine.
Thanks
sorry that's all new to me, you might get help on that if you post in the users section as more people will see it

Frugal, save folder.
quickpet >>> bionic updates
That fixed all the problems with the desktop drive icons and Rox.
Was never really having shutdown problems.
But will check to make sure I still have no problems.
Do not use Bluetooth so can not check this.
Those people working on Woof-CE need to post about some of the issues they find and fix.
They seem to always be under the hood, tweaking Puppy!
Thanks!

Following doing Bionic updates, Bluetooth goes back in the Too Hard File for me for a while again.
I worked out how to basically use Janky Bluetooth. I paired a bluetooth speaker, I added the speaker to the asound.conf. Couldn't get sound from speaker, A couple of attempts to 'trust' the speaker failed, as the speaker didn't seem to stay paired to the laptop.
Several attempts to pair phone to laptop. I could see (scan on) phone from laptop, I attempted to pair, got pair message on phone, clicked 'Allow', phone was connected for a few seconds then disconnected.
Once again totally frustrated with bluetooth.
Edit: After my frustrations last night, I still am very grateful for 666philb working on the bluetooth implementation for Bionicpup64. I didn't say it last night, so thanks Phil for all you are doing for puppy.
