I am running LXpupSc64 as a trial - version 19.06 + 0, with a view to using it as my go-to 64 bit Puppy, replacing Xenialpup64, which I might add, runs very well indeed. I just prefer the LXDE format for everyday workflows. And LXpupSc64 runs Imagemagick...

However, I cant see find what I need to do in order to run 32 bit Wine. Nothing seems to be in the PPM and there does not seem to be a Quickpet option.

Does LXpupSc64 need the 32 bit compatibility module, and if so where will I find it??

Maybe I have missed something....

I have looked at:
http://distro.ibiblio.org/puppylinux/pet_packages-slacko6414.2/32bit-compat-slacko-14.2.sfs
and
http://distro.ibiblio.org/fatdog/sfs/800/32bit-fd64_802.sfs

and they seem very different.......

19.06 +5 installed to my i5 based Fujitsu S761, both as a pristine install and as an update to the +4 install. Stock kernel, 5.2.8, and 5.2.9 all run. Operation and system checks all continue to be perfect with all kernels except the lidsuspend problem I noted here: http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?p=1032848#1032848 persists. I continue to use +3 and haven't found the cause. The exact same failure now is present in LxPupSc 19.06 +5 whereas it was not present in LxPupSc 19.06 +4. Again kernel and pristine/update independent. For now I am dead-ended at LxPupSc64 +3 and LxPupSc +4. Seems a small thing but I probably lidsuspend 5 to 10 times in a day and have come to rely on the perfect resumes I had prior to these updates.

Cheers,

Marv, I had suspend, video & shutdown issues with kernels after 4.18, so I compiled latest 4.14 & all ok. Upcoming 5.4 kernel may address this.

32-bit compatibility module for both ScPup64 and LxPupSc64

Testing needed..........

tested a few 32bit apps.....

steam works but fails on first launch. to get it working look into /root/.local/share/Steam/ubuntu12_32/steam-runtime/i386/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/ and delete any libxcb stuff and then try relaunching. (note this isn't anything to do with your sfs)

tahrpups google-earth ... fires up after updating the /lib/ld-lsb.so.3 symlink (same as above not a problem with the sfs)

an old gridwars2.pet needed /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.5. it might be worth including in the .sfs as some old 32bit pets may require it.

Thanks heaps, peebee.

I downloaded/loaded the 32 bit compatibility sfs and loaded/ran a couple of 32 bit sfs's.

I then installed wine-portable-3.3_v.2.1 and ran a couple of windows .exe apps.

Everything works as expected thus far.

Again, thanks.

Thanks from here too, peebee.

SFS loaded in LxPupSc64 19.06 +3 and QtWebBrowser (3.8.5 build 108 portable) runs well. It's my fallback/paywall piecer and probably my last must-have 32b program. Not used often but I like having it around.

LxPupSc64-19.09+0-uefi-T is a 64-bit woof-ce 'testing' branch build with a 64-bit kernel (therefore only compatible with 64-bit capable processors)

LxPupSc64-19.09+0-uefi-T.iso {devx} - (devx does not include kernel sources or headers) {kernel 5.2.11-lxpup64 sources}

iso md5 = dce0601ecee27207fc8b47c529f19e70

Interim delta updates and newer kernels may be available.

Delta from LxPupSc64-19.06+0-uefi-T-k64 is available

- kernel 5.2.11 64-bit built with GCC-9.2.0

having lots of fun here compared to the official release despite not knowing much about sc (more of a debian guy). overall i feel more at home with lxde than jwm/rox.

have tried a bunch of puppies before but this is the first ive seen suspend, awesome. works on both sc and bb. there is a slight issue though, it only suspends once. which scripts do suspend call? anything i should info dump to help out?

19.09+3 is available - see posts #1 and #2

WARNING

Really weird problem with 19.09+3....

Only on some machines.....

Chromium based browsers crash

Solution is to revert to 19.09+2

ScPup64-19.09.+3 does NOT have problem

LxPupSc32 has same problem

[Later]
Recent mesa-19.2.0 update is probably to blame:
